- Monday, March 21, 2011, 9:47 AM Well-trained investors rushing to buy the dip do not fully appreciate the level and nature of the losses facing Japan, says Carl Weinberg, who predicts greater declines in share prices. Weinberg also sees the oft-predicted JGB bear market beginning the minute the BOJ ends its money market injections. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, March 21, 2011, 9:14 AM "Something out of the blue like this ... really creates a buying opportunity, I don't think Japan will be an exception," says Warren Buffett. With EWJ just 6% off of its pre-quake price, investors may want to have a look at less well known EZJ, SCJ, DFJ, DXJ, or these Japanese ADRs. 7 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, March 21, 2011, 7:15 AM Efforts to cool the pools holding spent fuel rods at the Fukushima nuclear reactors appear to be working, the temperatures having fallen below the boiling point. Japanese markets were closed on Monday, but Nikkei futures are +2.9% The yen weakens to ¥81.25. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Sunday, March 20, 2011, 1:35 PM World central banks could launch another offensive on the yen as soon as Monday following Friday's late-day gains. Weekend tensions in Libya could be a boon for safe-haven assets, including the yen. 5 Comments [Global & FX]
- Saturday, March 19, 2011, 3:14 PM Adding to concerns about radiation contamination, Japan's health ministry says an abnormal amount of radioactive material was detected in spinach grown ~70 miles outside of Tokyo, and in milk from a dairy farm ~32 miles away from the Fukushima plant. Small amounts of radioactive material have also been detected in tap water in Tokyo. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 18, 2011, 2:52 PM Breaking down in tears, the managing director of TEPCO concedes the radiation being emitted from the damaged reactors is enough to kill people. The NISA, which earlier raised its rating of the severity of the disaster, acknowledges the water-spraying operation is "fighting a fire we cannot see." 14 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 18, 2011, 10:02 AM "We didn't learn anything," says a seismology professor who resigned from what he described as a rigged and unscientific 2006 Japanese government panel on nuclear reactor safety. Backup diesel generators were located in the basement at Fukushima - this in a country that invented the word tsunami. 4 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 18, 2011, 8:34 AM Seemingly at odds with reports of the situation stabilizing, Japan raises the rating of the nuclear accident from 4 to 5. It's a logarithmic scale, so such a move means a doubling in severity. Is this like ratings agencies downgrading Greek debt after rates shoot into double digits? 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 18, 2011, 7:28 AM While a worst-case scenario cannot be ruled out, a sense of stability returns to the situation at the Fukushima nuclear plant. An electric line to the reactors is nearly complete and workers continue to spray seawater on the reactors using dozens of firetrucks. 11 Comments [Global & FX]

- Thursday, March 17, 2011, 5:27 PM Engineers complete the connection of a power line to the #2 building at Fukushima, allowing restarting of pumps that send coolant over the reactor. Workers are waiting for the completion of an operation spraying seawater over reactor #3 before flipping the on switch. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:57 PM As he listens to nuclear experts saying there is no risk of another Chernobyl at Fukushima, Dylan Grice wonders if something just as horrible could happen in a way no one has yet thought of. If it does, Japanese shares could slide another 20% and investors should be ready to buy "with both hands." 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:27 PM Hedge funds and institutional investors take advantage of the crisis to load up on value-laden Japanese blue chips. Nomura notes 85% of the business it did for European clients on Tuesday were buy orders. The share count for EWJ has been stable, meaning no net redemptions. Japanese ADRs. Comment! [Global & FX]
