Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[punkle]

Japan up 150 so far tonight. Looks like bankruptcies are way down and buying of cyclicals is happening. Bankruptcies down 23.7% in July of this year vs. last year. And then this comment in the news release:

"We still think it is difficult to say that Japan has entered a sustainable recovery...and we still do not see strong impetus coming from areas such as capital spending and private consumption," Teikoku said in a statement.

"The current drop in bankruptcies is not due to an elimination of a potential crisis, but rather to a postponement of that crisis."

Anybody who knows Japan better than I do have an idea if they are postponing or eliminating the crisis?
