The Nikkei 225 s melt up has caused it to break back above levels last seen during Japan s bubble era. It was a time when Japan Inc. was buying up the world, and it was said that the land under the Imperial Palace in Tokyo was worth more than the entire state of California.
The Nikkei crossed 30,000 this week for the first time in more than 30 years. It now stands at 30,292, a level last set in July 1990. At that time, the Tokyo market was well into a meltdown that saw its entire value cut in half. Between late December 1989, when the Nikkei peaked at an all-time high of 38,916, and September 1990, the world s second-largest stock market fell 46.1%. Tokyo stocks lost more than US$2 trillion in market value.
