1
Why should the U.S investor care at this point?
2
So we constantly hear, are we becoming Japan?
3
Right?
4
Because Japan has printed tons and tons of money and they've had interest rates at zero for seemingly forever.
5
And yet the economy doesn't grow and inflation doesn't happen.
6
I mean, I did a hit, I don't know, about a month ago.
7
I said, you want to know how to create inflation?
8
It's very easy.
9
Look at what Venezuela does.
10
They deficit spend and they print money.
11
and bam, they got inflation at 65%.
12
Well, guess what?
13
Japan's been doing the same thing and they have deflation.
14
Why the difference there?
15
Why?
16
Well, so here's the one criticism that economists have had of Japanese-style quantitative easing for a very long time.
17
They say they never, for a very long period of time or for enough of a period of time, achieved negative real interest rates.
18
Remember what real interest rates are.
19
What do we all think inflation is going to be?
20
Interest rates that you would get at a bank have to be lower.
21
So the expectations are already so low that you can't fall beneath them?
22
You've got to do something to get underneath them, right?
23
So we really understand this intuitively when we think, why would anybody want to buy a German bond for, you know, less than 1%?
24
Well, if you think inflation is zero, 1% looks okay, right?
25
Because you're making more than zero what your money would do just sitting in a bank getting nothing.
26
But after 20 years and after how that changes the mentality over essentially a generation.
27
Right.
28
It's brutal.
29
The idea of trying to fall beneath that.
30
Right.
31
If you collectively as a society think, well, inflation's never happening.
32
Yeah.
33
And I'm used to 150 year mortgage that I'm signing up for at this point.
34
And I know I'm always going to be living with my parents and my children will then live with me.
35
Right.
36
Or even more simply, why would I buy this car today
37
if I think it's going to be cheaper in a year from now?
38
Why would I buy a house?
39
Look, I've been doing that with gas prices this week.
40
I keep waiting to fill my tank. Do you?
41
Exactly.
42
I did until yesterday.
43
I was empty yesterday.
44
Yeah, that's going to be bad.
45
So the question is, you know, we...
46
Come on, you're the one who put half a tank of gas in
47
because you were turning the car and didn't want to get your 13 bucks.
48
So, you highlighted this about this deal between the prime minister and the head of the central bank.
49
Let's bring up the quote very specifically that I say Kuroda, Kaorin Joji says.
50
There's no emphasis on any sololubles.
51
I don't think you do.
52
I think it's even.
53
You're right.
54
That is a good analysis.
55
This is what the Bank of Japan governor said.
56
He said, fiscal discipline is the responsibility of the government and parliament, that would be Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, not that of the central bank.
57
Understand, you know, central banking THE CITY IS NOT A LITTLE BIT OF THE CITY.
58
THE CITY IS NOT A LITTLE BIT OF

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
