Experts are increasingly favoring the iShares Japan ETF (EWJ-N) as they shift focus from overheated North American markets to foreign opportunities, with Japan emerging as a significant contender. The ongoing fiscal stimulation in Japan is providing a solid foundation for growth. Observations of the ETF's chart show a pattern of breakouts followed by consolidation rather than extreme volatility, which some analysts view positively. This consistent performance suggests a stable upward trend rather than erratic movements, which has encouraged a gradual investment strategy. Overall, the sentiment around EWJ-N reflects confidence in Japan's economic recovery and market potential.

WEAK BUY

To get this diversification of Japan, by this slowly, don't rush into it.

PAST TOP PICK

(A top pick Sept. 28/05 up 13%) Just took that position off a couple of days ago. Japan is starting to lose momentum compared to other countries.

BUY

This is a good way to invest in Japan.

TOP PICK

The Japanese market has definitely turned. All the signs point to continued growth in the economy.

COMMENT

Prefers to be an active investor and buy individual stocks rather than buying a basket of stocks where some are good and some are bad.

BUY

Likes Japan. If you believe in Japan and thinks there's some potential there, this is a way to play it.

TOP PICK

Likes the technical structure that he's seen in the short run here. Made a higher high and basically have taken out the key resistance level of around $11. There's big volume coming in to Japan now. Anytime there is a correction, you want to be a buyer. Will be counter cyclical to what is happening in the US.

BUY

Looking for more upside. Can see between 14000/16000 which would put this up around the $15 level. Expects to buy some shortly.

BUY

Valuations outside of US are better. Japan is a very attractive market right now. Currency and stock market are strong. This one gives you broad coverage in the Japanese market.

TRADE

Q: Borrowed on margin US$'s and bought Japan iShares. Q: A neat strategy. What you haven't made on iShares will be picked up on the $. Japan's economy is better than it has been in a decade. Has limited knowledge on Japanese market.

BUY

Gives exposure to the broader Japanese market. Believes Japan will provide fairly healthy returns for the next 3 years.

WEAK BUY

Still thinks Japan is on its way back. Caution: These are based on US$ and he feels that the US$ will be dropping.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Got nervous about the market in March and sold their holdings. Would consider buying if they sold off a bit.

BUY

Japan looks like a reasonable place to invest in.

BUY

Japanese stocks have really taken off on sales to China. Things it still has a way to go. Could also benefit from a weakening US dollar.
