Random thoughts of Japanese Economy and Education.

This weekend, I'm very busy to check stock market. When American economy slip into recession? I read some journals and found an article about it. The analyst said America has the potential of bubble economy burst. It is not special but there is more no-spacial conclusion that if terrorism with nuke happens and China's slow economic growth occurs and Mideast violence gets militant, plunge into recession. What on earth did he analyzed? We already know the answer.



Some Japanese analysts say the global downturn in stocks caused by interest-rate raise by Japan. Takenaka Heizo, former minister, said "the earthquake center" was China, Someone says China has defaulted credit equivalent to 20% of the overall economy, while Japan's was 8% or so. as always, I don't understand the truth. :-) But it is nice opportunity to study about economy. I hold some stocks but the purpose is to study. I have to study to save money. It is a very effecting system for me to study.



Well, it seems some Japanese high schools introduce a class to teach dealings on the stock exchange. Those schools say they teach investment. But I don't think so. Because they seem to make students to compete the benefit of interest-rate spread. It is not investment but gamble named speculation. I doubt of that they should teach such a thing, but I think should teach about investment if they think students should study about economy. They can study speculation with chart but they have to read settlement reports to study investment. Moreover, I suppose they should teach manufacturing with investment more which is most important for Japanese economy which have to depending on export. I know American schools teach it but there is a difference of economic circumstance between Japan and America. Moreover, they should teach philosophy and its problem in high school. It would be impossible though.



Well, it is time to watch a TV drama named 風林火山(Fuu-rin-Ka-zan) on NHK. Have a good week!



Well, I'm back. My stomach is fighting with gravity now.
