Who knows what will happen at the beginning of the year? This year if you put all of your money in Japan you would have made 50%.

Do not put all of your eggs in one basket. Take a look at the chart below. If you would have spread your money around, you would have had winners and losers but would have made out just fine. Avoiding big mistakes is how you make money.
