Friday Funnies - Financial Crisis in Japan

Asia is caught in the American financial crisis

The latest investment news indicates that we're in for
a bumpy ride, now that problems in the sub-prime lending
market in America have now spread uncertainty into the
Japanese economy.

The trend over the last month adds weight to rumors
that the Origami Bank is likely to fold, the Sumo Bank
could go belly up, while Bonsai Bank has announced
plans to cut some of its branches.

The Karaoke Bank is ripe for a takeover, with analysts
predicting that it will go for a song, while overnight reports
reveal that trading in Kamikaze Bank has been suspended
after shares nose-dived.

Five hundred senior Karate Bank executives have got the
chop and analysts report that there is something fishy
going on at Sushi Bank, with shareholders likely to get a
raw deal.
