Japan has fallen victim to the Keynesian scam

[Tsing Tao]

If you ever set foot into Japan or had been to Japan recently you would know that economic figures is one thing (after all some hedgies have attempted to short JGBs for close to 1.5 decades now and have been burnt each and every single time. But you would not know that as someone so removed from the market as by your own admission.

I didn't admit I was removed from the market. Just that I have never lived or worked in Japan. Apparently, it is a requirement to live or work in a place before you can read economic reports for that place, according to Volly rule #421 (or was that #422?)

There are some structural changes going on that even take my pessimistic assessment by surprise. Not as much as anyone would want to see but still surprisingly bold given this is Japan. Maybe you do not see that. The biggest issue Japan is battling right now is the high amount of temp workers as percentage of salaried people in Japan. This is a real problem and currently the political elite is too afraid to touch on this issue and go against Japan Corp. This is a real problem and one of the major issues why there are no wage increases or at least not the desired wage increases. In the end it is all econ 101, as long as Joe on the street does not have money in his pocket he won't purchase or take risk.

Awesome. So we agree the articles point out serious flaws in Abenomics. See, I knew you'd finally come around. Welcome back, Volly! I'll continue to "cut and paste" articles that further illustrate what a folly Abenomics is, to further support your (latest) flip flop and my assertion.

Enjoy your day!

no, but it is a requirement to know a thing or two what you open your mouth about. Else you sound clueless which is exactly what is happening here on 40 pages and 100+ pages in the Greece thread. Everything you said about Europe/Greece, Japan, Co, is just repeating what you read in some report. You have no idea whether what you read is true or even remotely tangenting reality. That is the real issue here my friend. You read something and take it for granted because you take in some bizarre ownership of that content and nobody can change your mind about it.

And yes, you did admit you know nothing about markets but that never came at a surprise given you have hardly ever opened your mouth about anything market related. You are the King of chitty chats, and I do not think anyone will even attempt to compete with you in that arena.

I back up my statements with information. You can either choose to debate the information, or poke fun at me because I never lived in Japan. You choose the latter as your strategy, and that reflects on your credibility (or lack of). If you don't like what is written in the article, debate the facts presented. Instead, you prefer to go after the author of the article (like in the case of Shedlock) or attack me for posting it (hey, let's bring up the Miami tourist thing again - that never gets old!) as if that is a better way of showing that Japan is on the path of fiscal responsibility. You're a fucking troll in these threads, which is fine by me, but don't pretend to be otherwise. When I troll someone, I'll fully admit I'm trolling them. You pretend this faux outrage and try to make folks believe you're the authority on the topic. That's why so many people on this site think you're an asshole - just try to be more amiable, if at all possible.

I assume you have a link where I said I "know nothing about markets"?

you do not back up anything, because you do not produce any original content: You parrot what you read somewhere. Obviously your favorite read is Mish Shedlock. Anyone who dares to contradict him is by your definition declaring war with you. You actually never produced original content or presented your own aggregate view of things. Its just either this article is right or that article is wrong. In this case again Mish Shedlock knows shit about Japan, yet you take everything he writes for granted.

Why would I troll you? Do you perhaps take yourself a little too important? I have an obvious interest in Japan, and I have been participating in your Greek thread from day one (by the way, EU, EMU are still not dead? By your predictions it should have all gone to hell, goodness, seems like nothing actually that you predicted came to fruition, or do we have to wait for another bailout?Lol).

Yes I do have the link where you say "I know nothing about markets". It is called "show us anything that Tsingtao ever posted about the markets". Show us some posts where you ever displayed a decent understanding of trading or financial markets. Truth is you troll around in every chit chat thread there is on this site. Look at the number posts you produced, it tells it all what you spend every day with.

So you have no link to show me where I said that I know nothing about markets. I kinda figured you were bullshitting again.

I read Mish, but he's not my favorite. You can contradict him and I'd love to hear it. But you don't. You attack the man, and the fact that he got married again after his wife died or something. Please show me where you are debating the data posted. Of course, that will be another link you never come up with.

Please show me where I said the EU and EMU should be dead by now. Another made up horseshit claim.

So no link, then. As for a trading thread that I've created, here is a link to one. I'm sure, however, that you'll have some pitiful excuse as to why it's not acceptable.

 

[volpunter]

Any reference where you ever talked with authority about anything market or trading related? No? I thought so, QED!!!

Dude, what drugs are you on? Just because it doesn't match with your view on the subject doesn't disqualify it. I posted a trading thread I have. You don't like it, I don't really care. Just because you tell everyone how everything is and everyone else is wrong (according to you) doesn't mean you're anything but an asshole (which everyone can agree with). QED.

I am generally an asshole on this site (guilty as charged)

 

[volpunter]

Lol, of course you care else you would not continue rambling on and on and on and simply shut me up by posting links to content where you display any sort of insight or knowledge of markets instead of being the newspaper article clipping boy that you are.

You're rambling on right beside me, volly boy. At least I'm consistent with my point of view and thoughts. I don't say one thing and then flip flop, showing that the only thing doing the talking is my ass.

Posting articles is more content then you're adding, that's for sure! Or perhaps you think the last 5 pages of this thread is you "adding value"? LOL!

[volpunter]

Well let the likes speak for how much value others derive from posted content.

So still nothing you can recommend the other poster regarding Japanese markets? Truly zero value added? Sorry I keep on asking but after all it was others that asked you for it. Just like to hold you up to your promises.
