		<description><![CDATA[by Carl Delfeld, Investment U’s Global Equities and Emerging Markets Specialist Thursday, April 14, 2011: Issue #1491 The bear case for Japan is well known: high debt, slow growth, an aging population, gaping budget deficits and dysfunctional politics. To many investors, Japan’s economy seems like yesterday’s story, while emerging markets look like the future. But there are two sides to every story, and the case for keeping some Japan exposure in your portfolio is clear and compelling. Here are a baker’s dozen of reasons why ignoring Japan may be a mistake… 13 Reasons Japan Still Has a Bright Future Ahead Japanese companies and local banks are flush with cash. Deposits at Japanese banks exceed outstanding loans by $1.8 trillion. Approximately 95 percent of Japan’s $10-trillion sovereign debt is held by ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, markets overcame fears of any near-term slide in the wake of global issues to end higher as materials and energy helped the indices post gains. The mass destruction caused by the earthquake and tsunami in the third largest economy of the world, Japan, failed to unnerve US markets. Protests in Saudi Arabia also fizzled out letting investors share a cheerful mood. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at 12,044.40 and gained 0.5% for the day. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 gained 0.7% and the Nasdaq Composite Index was up 0.5% to close at 1,304.28 and 2,715.61, respectively. However, earlier losses in the week limited the markets from ending higher for the week as the Dow inched down 1%, S&#38;P 500 shed 1.3% and Nasdaq lost 2.5%. On ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Carl Delfeld, Global Equities and Emerging Markets Specialist Tuesday, March 1, 2011 With higher oil prices suddenly driving market sentiment again, Capital Economics estimates that if oil cracks the $130 level, it would cost American consumers more than $100 billion this year alone. And those fears aren’t just playing out in America… ~ In Turkey: The stock market got pounded last week, as investors worried that the jump in oil prices will swell its already bloated trade deficit even further (the deficit was 3.5% of GDP in 2010). And you can see why, given that the biggest contributors to the trade deficit include energy (crude oil, natural gas, and coal), chemicals, petroleum products, and machinery. Together these items accounted for about 87% of Turkey’s 2010 trade deficit. ~ In ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Carl Delfeld, Contributing Editor Thursday, August 5, 2010: Issue #1317 Editor’s Note: Today, we welcome a new contributing editor to Investment U – Carl Delfeld, who boasts an impressive resume, with his career focusing on global finance and investing. Here is his debut Investment U article… No hunter worth his salt would try to nail a trophy bighorn with a shotgun. It would be equally foolish to try bagging a prize turkey with a rifle shot. The same thinking applies when you’re going after stocks. You have to use the right investment tools to fit your strategy. It sounds simple, but you’d be surprised by how many global portfolios I’ve reviewed over the years that are a mish-mash of stocks and mutual funds, dumped in there with little rhyme or reason. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Alexander Green, Chief Investment Strategist Monday, February 8, 2010: Issue #1192 Here’s a handy way to know when to sell your investments: everyone is talking about them. There is an obvious corollary to knowing what to sell. If you want to know what to buy, consider what no one is talking about. And that brings me to investing in Japan… Investing in Japan: Land of the Rising Sun And Stock Market From a high near 40,000 in 1989, the once-mighty Nikkei 225 – the equivalent of our S&#38;P 500 – fell over 80% and hit a 27-year low early last year. It’s still more than 70% below the highs of 21 years ago. The main culprit – aside from a real estate bubble that made the one here in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Ryan Cole, Investment U Research Team The dust is settling in Japan, and the only thing we know for sure is that no one can agree… on anything. With the new government in office – the first real time Japan has been ruled by any group other than the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) since the country became a democracy – there’s plenty of mystery and not much clarity, though everybody seems to have an opinion. One commentator says government stimulus is about to go wild: Buy Japanese everything, she preaches, especially banks. But another disagrees: The too-cozy relationship between Japan’s government and contractors is now over, he maintains, so short Japanese construction. A third claims not much will change: Japan is a conservative ship that turns slowly, if at ]]></description>
