The stock is now trading below $36. Is it a time to buy, sell or hold? Thanks for all you do!

However, if most of the holders of Japanese sovereign debt are the Japanese themselves what is the risk that they will abandon ship? Where else would the average risk averse sovereign debt holder go? ponymagic:

It's hard to imagine that Japan will suddenly pay their way out of their debt and it's easy to imagine pretty severe default scenarios. What do people think of this strategy? Japan's bonds are likely to get thrashed at some time, but it's hard to say when. Does anyone know of an easy vehicle to make this play?
