I am an retail equities trader who manages his own portfolio.

I am told with great authority from friends in the City that within weeks of Lehmans going down, nearly everyone associated with these bonds had been let go, both in the City of London and Wall Street, and it has since become known, that many of those traders and bankers who were expecting bonuses, not only had the bonus cancelled, but are now in lots of lawsuits up and down both the U.S.

For example, a Japanese steakhouse most likely would require some different features and/or layout.Maybe I am jumping the gun and overthinking all of this but any advice or input would be greatly appreciated.

As a follow-up to the above, for home mortgages the 3 major Japanese banks have lowered 10-year fixed rates to 1.05%, with some of the internet banks such as Sony offering even more competitive rates at 0.05% variable rate.

One of my friends is a successful day trader, and he's told me that the two cardinal sins of stock trading are fear and greed.

Moneypenny, I wouldn't rather buy a Honda or Toyota, I would rather buy American, if they had the longevity and the reliability of the Japanese vehicles.

I have been fortunate to visit many Asian countries and befriend a great many filipino, japanese, korean, thai, and vietnamese during my stay in Hawaii.

Investors can choose to make money actively – prop traders, active investors – or passively – index funds, mutual funds.

So, all in all, unless there is a change political will to bypass lobbyists in decision making, it is hard to see change.Moving on to Hydrogen fuel cells for energy to drive cars and energy production is something Japan and Japanese automakers are pushing for.
