Wonder How Japan is going to react to the stronger Yen tonight. There about to enter a Bear Market. Or have after last night. 20% decline is no correction.

Yes! Precious Metals about to take over! Japan is killing there country

Getting pounded on huge volume PM

The Yen getting stronger even when Japan is trying to bury there own country in Yen Dilution! Not good for Japan.

52wk high and Red Hot

Consistent 1-2% swings, if I were rich?? I would play this like a fiddle!! lol!!

This thing always has some serious volume!

All you guys that are following this, seriously if you had some money. This stock would be an easy 5-10% flipper!!

This looks like a good stock to have daily gains on?

Japan is booming now!

I need to do some more DD on this one.

Investors simply must look at the price they are paying for Japanese stock market funds. What's happening in the market today has turned dangerous.

Everyone knows the Nikkei collapsed by 11% overnight.

But Japanese equity funds trading in New York have been rallying sharply since mid-morning. Investors have been trying to buy the dips -- but it looks like they're not looking at the price.

By early afternoon, the iShares MSCI Japan Index fund ( EWJ: 10.03, -0.02, -0.19% ) trading in New York was selling for just 2% below Monday's close.

The iShares MSCI Japan Small Cap Index fund ( SCJ: 41.47, -0.85, -2.00% ) : 4.5% below.

In other words, investors aren't getting anywhere near the full "crash discount" they think they are.

According to iShares, the last reported net asset value of the EWJ fund was $10.27. But that NAV is out of date. It was calculated before Tokyo's 11% crash.

A truer figure is probably somewhere around $9.20 a share - an 11% drop from $10.27. Yet as of Tuesday afternoon, U.S. investors were buying the EWJ for $9.99 per share.

Tokyo is closed right now. Based on the closing prices from last night, these funds should be lower. Maybe Tokyo will open higher tonight -- and maybe it won't. In this environment I'd rather buy at a discount, not at a premium.

Since last Thursday, Japan's TOPIX small cap index has fallen 22%. The SCJ fund: Just 14%.

What about the closed-end funds? It's a similar story. The Japan Equity fund ( JEQ: 5.83, -0.05, -0.85% ) is down just 2.6%, the Japan Smaller Capitalization fund ( JOF: 8.37, -0.06, -0.71% ) about 2%.

If you want to buy Tokyo at a discount, check the price on the fund to make sure you are actually buying it at a discount. Be aware, too, that although this crash may offer a buying opportunity, it comes with a good dose of risk.

Remember BP ( BP: 43.77, -1.30, -2.88% ) when disaster struck in the Gulf last spring. The stock looked pretty cheap after it had fallen to $50. But as events spun out of control it fell all the way to $27 before finding a floor. Someone who bet too many chips too early was on the wrong side all the way down -- and missed out on the best deals of all. (I was among those who saw opportunities too early.)

In Japan things may get cheaper -- maybe even a lot cheaper -- before it's over. Tread very carefully. Only buy in small doses at a time. And for heaven's sake watch the price.

Correction: All right $NIKK is underperforming the rest of the Asian markets, so I capitulate on LT target. Will see and reassess.

Loser $NIKK is underperforming other markets again.
They are losing international market shares to China and South Korea? e.g. samsung

While $SSEC is showing positive signs again.

Will see, how they close.

Hi Cambio, $NIKK LT target 20.8K.

Good luck





$NIKK closed above LT Monthly support with Target of 20800 as noted on 8/16/07

This is a staple of my long term holdings. Ishares seem to be a good way to invest in foreign markets. Hopefully we can see solid growth in the Japanese markets.
