About the author

I am an economist and investor who is dedicating most of his time on trying to understand Japan and himself. My investment process is based on the value-investing framework outlined by the great work of Graham and Dodd.

What to expect?

"Land of the rising sum" or "Land of the setting sun" are just two of numerous dysphemism’s in the media describing Japan's current state of economic affairs and looming economic disaster. Mainstream economists now forecast that Japan’s decline from economic predominance will mirror that of Argentina over the 20th century. Such gloomy prognostications should whet the appetite of any "true" deep value investor.

Undervaluedjapan is not limited to presenting Japan-specific economic aspects and uncovering deeply discounted Japanese companies. Japan has a rich history and unique culture, which is also reflected in its corporate sector. It is a fascinating, mysterious and often unknown world to the western audience, which the blog will open a crack wide to the inclined reader.
