You think that Japan can survive the coming onslaught and harsh economic day of reckoning? I doubt it. Japan can't make it past Dec. 2013... I think the SGHTF this summer... Thank you Greece, Spain and the EU...(and Japanese bureaucracy!)

  1. Isn't Hayman Capital essentially Kyle Bass who has been talking about the train wreck of Japan for years? Looks like it's getting closer.

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
