Summary Of All Closed Japanese Plants And Factories
According to Bloomberg, as of this moment there are 31 companies that have experienced temporary or permanent plant shut downs in earthquake-stricken Japan, resulting in the closure of 150 different facilities. How Goldman can say there will be no GDP impact to Japan with a straight face is beyond our meager comprehension.

"estimates of damages" out in a day? "estimates of loss of GDP" out in a day? obviously "the downgrades are coming fast and furious" now. and some company called "Maersk" says "their ships aren't coming within...
can I finish the sentence? Their ships aren't coming within 2,000 miles of that Sh^&hole!
Mærsk is the largest (or maybe second-largest, depending on who is currently ahead on buyouts) shipping company in the world! JIT turns to shit!!

Go long purified drinking water companies like Acquifina, Fuji, Culligan?

""Maersk Line, a unit of Danish shipping and oil group A.P. Moller-Maersk, said in a weekly news bulletin that it suspended service to Sendai, Onahama and Hachinohe.""
At first I thought I was reading about Detroit. Then I realized Maersk doesn't service Detroit.
Are you sure they don't? Detroit is actually an ocean port, as are Buffalo, Cleveland, Duluth, Chicago and Milwaukee, all thanks to the Welland Canal.
Japan was well on it's way to recession prior this. They logged one quarter negative already.
The real ignorance is saying it won't effect the rest of the world and the USA is immune. S&p to 1500!
again "no damage assessment until the damage is stopped."
Do reverse osmosis drinking water machines work on nuclear fallout material like caeseum, iodine and strontium?
Yes.
The water comes out of the ground, you go into the ground.

Well, strictly speaking, you didn't see Goldman's employees faces when they were drafting the report saying this, most likely they were laughing their asses off.
Yes, then they went long equity futures, bought put protection, and then started unloading their positions to their clients.
They dont have many loosing days.
Japan is at 2x their gdp in debt. Could this now go to 4or5x? USA will be close to Japan soon in that regard.

For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
someone needs a redundancy plan
Sadly, this information stutter is fractally equivalent to the damage and casualty numbers. Needlessly understated and then suddenly, wham.
Why bother? Let thing settle. Let people find their bearings, mourn their losses, try to get their life back together.
Which man-machine or machine is going to be dumb enough to make any decisions regarding anything with this kind of information anyways. The power supply question, industry life-blood in Japan is such a huge dark cloud anyways.
Cart before horse is a foll's exercise.

“Meanwhile, the number of foreigners entering Japan has plunged. On one flight from London to Tokyo on Tuesday, only 20 of 300 seats were filled. The World Travel and Tourism Council forecast the latest earthquake and nuclear crisis will severely impact Japan’s tourism industry, which accounts for 6.8 percent of its GDP.”

No doubt Bloomberg foresees a tourism boost thanks to bargain-rate lodging and inexpensive, environmentally irradiated sushi.
'On one flight from London to Tokyo on Tuesday, only 20 of 300 seats were filled.'
The 20 were all reps from bottled water companies... and, they were wearing tin foil hats and suits.
and lead jock-straps...
sorry Bloomberg,
I meant to write Goldman
How anyone can believe the third largest economy in the world can shut down and not affect GDP is beyond me. BTFD!
California still operates.. oh you meant somewhere else
How the Japanese remain calm without beer and cigarettes is incredible...
With the tobacco and beer plants shut down, this could really lead to a mass uprising.
I wonder if Bens Helicopter drops repel radioactivity as well.....
Nah, Bens Helicopter is full of bull shit and new dollars...
Japan is fucked...China should just annex what is left.
Tokyo water is ALREADY unfit for childrens consumption...adult will follow shortly since the thing is still smoldering, and when "neutron beams" are detected...there IS a breach.
Kiss the whole northern part of the island goodbye... Who in their right mind would stay?
how could there be a negative effect on GDP?
as long as there are working keyboards and electrons flowing to a screen near you, there is only (GE)Goldilocks Economics. BTW, lets not forget how they bring good things to life too..
9 beer plants closed.
We should ramp up beer production and send with water for the kids. The pilgrims on the ships, drank over a gallon a day for lack of potable water.
Beer is food. At least that is what I tell myself.
Bottoms up!
Who cares about the facts? As long as TARP666 continues and $800k Bonuses are handed out...who cares?

Yokohama tire company was started in Japan in 1917. Its headquarters are located in Tokyo, Japan and was started because of a partnership between the American tire company BF Goodrich and Yokohama Cable Manufacturing.
Most of the Yokohama tires are manufactured in Japan at their many factories.

3rd largest tire manufacturer appears not to be affiliated with Bridgestone, which is on the list above and shares a plant location with the namesake.

Haven't you heard? Printing money = GDP.
