Japanese still hold the highest savings in personal accounts in J banks in the world . . . . . .These figure's don't show the hidden assets which banks hold ------- which topple most countries.............................. Japan has huge money.

Having piles of assets doesn't equate to making profit - Japan's assets are dead. mostly invested in zombie companies and JGB's (which are even more unproductive). Shame on a once great economy.

I wonder why this bank is gambling on the stock market instead of sticking to its core business? Why are they investing in Spanish electricity companies? Still, it will all be a drop in the ocean when their Japanese government bond holdings become worthless.
