E) None of the above

To tell you the truth, I have to look into it further. The last issue of OID has really opened my eyes. Japan is like the US in 73-74. Nobody wants anything to do with equities there. Interesting facts--the annual rate of return since 1990 has been -9%. In 1989, Japan's equity mutual fund assets exceeded those of the US equity funds, $316 billion to $249 billion. Since then, Japan's equit fund assets have dropped to $107 billion, and the US has grown to $2 TRILLION(they mention this is 19X, but have updated that number to over 25X now). I don't know about timing, but the Nikkei 14,000 mark has held three times. It looks like excellent support. You can pay up for "new paradigm" US screamers, or go there and buy cash at a discount.
