At the April 2003 low, ROBtv (now BNN) interviewed Sid for a second time, about the reasoning behind the 125% Nikkei rally that would follow. Opportunities were reviewed, as Sid had first turned bullish on Japanese Domestic Demand Oriented Value stocks (DDOVS) in 2000. Returns would run countertrend to the severe losses being suffered during the also forecast 2000 - 2002 collapse in global world indices.

In the first ROBtv interview (Sep. 23, 2002), near lows (see Major Turning Points), Sid had discussed DDOVs that would outperform popular themes. The contrarian arguments for a major low were expounded (see March 31, May 3, and May 30 2003 reports).
