The site of Mr. Sakai Tanaka, who can be said to be a leading alternative media journalist in Japan, covers allegations of election fraud in the United States. Japan’s mainstream media dismissed U.S. election fraud as a delusion, and now it’s all about who buys Toshiba, what if Toshiba has a governance deficiency, and Nomura has been fooled by the bad market. .. The Japanese always claim that people who cheat and the government that leaves them are responsible. They don’t try not to be fooled or think they deceive others next time.
Speaking of Toshiba, there is a story that KKR is approaching Toshiba for acquisition. KKR recently also invested $500M in Box. Box missed the Corona telework bubble, with the S&P500’s application software index rising 33% in 2020, according to Reuter, while Box’s share price growth rate was only 9% over the same period. That’s why it’s targeted by a fund called Starboard. The fund is reportedly appointing candidates for three board positions, including founder Aaron Levie. Perhaps KKR is where the three people cried under the surface of the water. If KKR buys more shares of Box, the cloud storage company may end up becoming private at MBO.
Vingroup’s stock price is skyrocketing in Vietnam. The closing price on April 13th was 12.7% higher than the previous day. It hit a new high since its listing and reached 476 trillion VND, accounting for about 10% of the market capitalization of the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange. I feel like investing more in Vietnam.
Coinbase, a cryptocurrency exchange operator, has been listed in Nasdaq. It was listed through a normal process rather than a SPAC. I finally decided to open a cryptocurrency trading account. In Japan, there are only a limited number of cryptocurrency dealers who can open corporate accounts. You can’t open a corporate account with DMM Bitcoin or SBI VC. With GMO Coin, Coincheck and BitFlyer you can open corporate accounts. However, GMO Coin only deals with leveraged transactions. I don’t trade leverage in the first place, especially after Archegos. That’s why I decided to open it with Coincheck and BitFlyer.
Now, the alleged election fraud in the United States is no longer covered by the Japanese media. Republicans have opposed postal voting, early voting, and unidentified voting promoted by the Democratic Party. The state of Georgia, governed by Republican Kemp, has reformed against this, enacting legislation that requires thorough identity verification when voting and 24-hour monitoring of polling stations. Georgia describes this as necessary to prevent tampering and potential fraud.
However, the American mass media has advertised this as “a bad law that makes voting difficult.” According to the Democratic Party, the act of suppressing such votes is a minority crackdown and inequality against minorities. The New York Times has recently argued that “opposing postal voting is an infringement of voting rights,” but the newspaper once claimed that “postal voting is a hotbed of fraud.” They have forgotten that history conveniently.
As early as March, Alexander Domlin told Gazeta in an interview: “[a]ll the changes they are trying to make are being made so that Republicans cannot return to any of the executive and legislative branches of government. In addition to promoting early voting and mail elections, a landmark initiative is that voting will not need to provide an identity card to vote, “. In addition, “[i]n fact, if all these innovations are approved, the US bipartisan system risks becoming one-party system headed by the Democratic Party, the political scientist believes.” Gazeta published an article titled “Democracy is Over” on March 25th.
The United States will continue to be a major power, but it will become one of many poles rather than the uni-polarism it once had.
