Sid
Klein Global Strategy
April
10, 2003: On the first trading day of 1990, Sid Klein
identified the perfect peak of Japan’s amazing secular
bull market. Now, at the Nikkei’s secular low, ROBtv
(Report on Business) interviewed Sid Klein about the several
reasons why investors should invest in Japan, including the
conclusion of Japan’s banking crisis. In this second
ROBtv interview, discussion reviewed what opportunities investors
should look at. Mr. Klein had first turned bullish on Japanese
Domestic Demand Oriented Value stocks (DDOVS), in 2000. In
the first ROBtv interview (Sep. 23,
2002), near lows, Mr. Klein had recommended Yurtek,
Hino and Tstsunaka Plastics. This 2003 interview focused more
on how he viewed true political intentions, favouring sundry
tide turning reforms. Discussion included views on business
and economic data (i.e. - Asian-driven growth, positive employment
indicators), crossholding unwinding, etc. The arguments for
a major low were expounded (see
March 31,
May 3 and
May 30 2003 reports).
