This article has nothing about how the crash actually happened. I, unfortunately, know nothing of this particular bit of history. Anyone? 137.118.206.179 22:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I am somewhat of an expert on this particular financial phenomena. I created this page some time ago, and I plan on eventually executing a major edit to fill in all of the details when I have the time. Unfortunately I have not yet published my work on the Japanese bubble, so my original research will not be added until my work is released. In short, I have discovered that contrary to past publications, the bubble did not develop as a result of the post Plaza high-yen recession interest rate reductions and was more of a result of other influences such as changes in tax policy and financial deregulation.

Just a thought - I don't think the Michael Crichton reference is necessary. Rising Sun is just a rather far-fetched thriller that happens to be set in Japan; it hardly offers a significant political or economic critique of Japan. Gunstar hero (talk) 20:24, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

It is shocking to believe that Japanese commercial real estate could fall 99% or that Japanese residences in Tokyo fell 90%. This article's comment about the bank's loose lending practices leads me to draw comparisons or parallels with the recent U.S. housing bubble. If Japanese real estate fell for 15 years and fell 90%...what does that say about our real estate...especially inflated areas like California, Las Vegas, Miami, and Phoenix.75.84.230.67 (talk) 16:28, 3 May 2008 (UTC)ed lovette75.84.230.67 (talk) 16:28, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
