“East Economic Online” column now published — Survey & New Year gift giveaway start!

Good morning, this is Matsushita.

Last night on New Year’s Eve, the first dream of the year is the first dream,

What kind of dream did you have?

I would like to write about the dream I had in the last PPS.

Besides this dream, you probably have dreams you want to accomplish from now on.

Let's live today with all our might to achieve that dream.

On the second day of the New Year,

we will start the annual reader survey for the newsletter and

a New Year gift.

2017 Personal Investor Performance Survey

The annual survey is

a very simple questionnaire,

1. whether you made a profit last year,

2. whether you have been profitable overall up to now

these are the only two points.

From last year’s survey,

about 75% of investors overall have experienced losses cumulatively

at some point, a valuable data point.

2016 Personal Investor Results

Last year’s market environment saw the stock market form a bull uptrend,

with the first 16-session advance in October and, in November, a rise to

a 26-year high, so investors’

profits may have been stable.

On the other hand, the foreign exchange market had fewer trends,

and volatility was generally low for the year,

so FX investors were expected to struggle.

I believe this will also be revealed by the survey.

In addition,

as an open-entry field,

we have prepared space for you to write the reasons for profits or losses.

This was also conducted last year,

and it clarified investors’ worries and challenges in the market,

providing very useful data.

Please actively participate in the survey.

Furthermore, to those who generously gave their time and valuable feedback,

as a token of my heartfelt thanks,

I will send you a New Year gift.

1. To all respondents,

Special Video

“A Market Crash on the Scale of Lehman Won’t Happen Until 2018”

2. Through a lottery, six people will win

the book “Philosophy of Investment” ×2 copies,

“Investment Diary” ×2 copies,

“Mental CD for Traders” ×2 copies

as prizes.

All of these are books and CDs authored or supervised by me

to help investors profit,

so they are gifts that empower investors.

For the second prize,

you can select your preference on the survey page below.

By receiving your valuable opinions,

we will continue to deliver information, knowledge, and theories

that are useful to individual investors.

ps

Yesterday on New Year’s Day, I carefully read the Nikkei newspaper and thought about the changes happening in the world now.

These changes may be far beyond what we imagine,

and they align with the content of this special video.

In the future, the market might move in an extraordinary direction.

Please watch the video.

The first dream I had was

that I would go somewhere and come back,

and many people appeared along the way,

and there were many nonsensical happenings.

Among them, the sensations I remember include

“time stopping,” “being late for a promise,”

“the bus not coming,” reflecting time-related

sensations.

And at times several people helped me,

in that dream.

It was extremely busy and long; a dream with so many things happening is

rare for me.

Our brains have amazing powers, you know.

This year I want to study the brain as well, I feel (lol).
