Will Japan Escape The ZIRP Depression?

Japan just had a political earthquake which I saw coming for a long, long time.  As usual, I called all the shots nearly perfectly and have proof of this, just in the month of July, 2007, at my older blog location, I covered the rapid looming political changes pretty well, using the usual charts [...]
