According to expert reviews, the iShares Japan ETF (EWJ-N) is gaining attention as investors seek opportunities outside the overcooked North American markets. Japan is highlighted as a key market currently in an uptrend, supported by fiscal stimulation. The technical charts exhibit a pattern of breakouts and consolidations, which experts find appealing as it indicates a steady rise rather than a volatile parabolic climb. This stability has prompted some investors to gradually build positions, especially as the market shows signs of bottoming out during the current consolidation phase. With US markets perceived as riskier, Japan's recent breakout from a prolonged resistance is seen as a constructive development, which could present a favorable buying opportunity.

BUY
A good way to invest in the Japanese market. Has fallen a bit because of China slowing its economy. A good time to pick up.
BUY
Thinks the economy in Japan is starting to recover. The fact that the stock has rolled over has to do with China cooling off their economy. A good way to play this market.
WAIT
With the fear of higher US interest rates, there has been a dramatic rise in the US$ against the yen and the euro. Wait to see how far the US$ is going to rise.
TOP PICK
Likes the outlook for Japan.
BUY
The Nikkei has just had a correction of a first upward leg. Thinks it's now into the beginning of a second leg. This puts it about 9/10 months behind the world markets. A good place to hide.
BUY
A good way of investing in the Japanese market.
BUY
The Malaysian market was a big laggard in the recent run-up in the Southeast Asian markets. Starting to see the economy and consumption picking up.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Feb 4/04. Up 3.6%.) Japan is becoming a great China play.
STRONG BUY
Was almost a Top pick for tonight's show. Target is $16.
TOP PICK
Japanese I-shares. Owns. Will benefit for China play
TOP PICK
Expects demand from China for Japanese products will expand greatly.
TOP PICK
Japan is finally turning the corner. Capital spending is showing some strong signs of a pickup.
PAST TOP PICK
(A past top pick Nov 25/03. Up 3.7%.) Bought on the basis that the Nikkei would be at 14,000 in the next 12/18 months. Still likes.
DON'T BUY
Up trend has been broken. If it brakes below $8.50 the next level of support is 8.75. Could retest.
TOP PICK
(A top pick Oct 8/03. Down 9.29/8.89? %.) Hopeful that the Japanese investor who has been staying away from equities will decide to come back in droves.
