Those that got in on Weds must be smilin~... Glad to see some market movement, opportunity to short then go long.

Weds: Bye bye Nikkei 13,500 & JPY106/$ (Bloomberg)

Tuesday: Bye bye 14,000 (Bloomberg NKY INDEX GP)

W0nderful... market tanking... redemptions hitting... Its somewhat bearable to see the Nikkei flat when things are wonderful around the world but what happens when Subprime starts to effect world markets? There is no good news for Japan only funds like us.

Hapa Dinner in Nishi Azabu

Hapa Club rented out Mingo Restaurant in Nishi Azabu. Its kinda freaky to see 90+ Hapa's in one room~.

Early morning at Tsukiji Fish Market

Asakusa "Hatsumode"

Threw my 10 yen into the huge money box at the temple & wished my parents good health.

There goes the Nikkei

I'm sure Japan only funds will get hit with further redemptions... ugh. And of course China is up as usual today.
