Tokyo's further decline ahead(see att. Nik0927.gif) with 12500-12000 as PAUSE
between now and next years target 10500-10000.

However a strong advancing YEN esp. vs US$ (see below mail "Re: Exit Strategies")
can set any futher downsliding(eg targets as steep as 7500-7000) to a long
awaited (temp) stand still.

Also this weekends final arranged treaty pack(again?), on one of Japans most
urgently to be solved "banking creditability" problems between the government and
the opposition on the Long Term Credit Bank(LTCB), can stop Tokyo declining
much further than the at the top mentioned targets.

But many more die hard actions by the Jap. gov. on countries disrupted financial
creditabilaty matters is desperately required to restore any of the markets believes
and sentiment, and thus creating for Japan(+most of Asia) a turn-around.

Technical correction for the YEN returning to former support at 125-115 can be expected.
