This looks totally nonsensical and will surely have lots of criticism. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the family or children of the dead Ms. Chiba file for a civil suit to demand compensation. It could be fair, especially if she was a bread winner. This is why all parents should have insurance to cover most damage by kids, not least bicycle insurance which can pile up hundreds of million in damages if the kid mowes down the wrong person and it results in disability or death.

Often on TV "the man on the street" discuss investment the same way as taxi drivers, looking at it very short term. I fear many of the new shareholders, and even new NISA holders will jump on the sell button as soon as the markets start showing a bit of more volatility.

If this company has not only survived but grown to 20 people since 2008, it must be considered successful in its industry. Most of these outfits stay a one man show with some loosely associated sub-consultants on the side. But would be surprised if they turn mote than a small profit.
