I don't follow individual issues on the Nikkei like I do in the US markets, so when I used the term "13 year bear" I was simply repeating what the author called it. His premise was that we could repeat their experience of 13 years of price declines in the major indices. I haven't made the same level of investigation into the Japanese market that I've made into the US markets so I'm unaware if there is ambiguous information that might lay beneath the overt information that the index provides. Whether the US is in a bear or a bull doesn't matter so much to me since I don't buy the market or make my money guessing which way the indices will go on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. I make my money in individual companies and the companies that I own are clearly not in a bear market.
