feer.com At least we know where investments are going in Japan. I n times of economic uncertainty, people typically hang on to their cash, and the Japanese are no exception. But while retailers suffer, one group of companies is enjoying a boom. They're safe makers--and they're working overtime to meet demand. Sales first shot up in Hokkaido, when Hokkaido Takushoku Bank went bust in November. A week later, the boom moved to the main island of Honshu as Yamaichi Securities closed its doors. "Demand is still so strong that production can't catch up--we've given up our Saturdays for work," says Toshiyuki Nakabayashi, a manager at Eyko Kogyo, a major safe maker. Since November, the firm has been selling more than 20,000 safes a month--double the usual figure. Central-bank data confirm the trend towards cash: In January, cash in circulation amounted to $372 billion, up 9.5% from a year earlier.
