Topics covered include:
- How big was Japan's stock bubble, and how much did it contribute to the stock market's underperformance over the past three decades
- How do Japan's demographic trends impact its economic challenges, and what are the solutions
- Why Japan's houses are built to depreciate in value
- What lessons can we learn from Japan's extended bear market
