Basically any Japanese stocks can be bought. Strong output is having a ripple effect on other things such as wages and consumption.

I still haven't seen the effects associated with a real shortage -- rising wages for workers and rising prices for consumers.

Masters are always and everywhere in a sort of tacit, but constant and uniform combination, not to raise the wages of labor.

A monopoly granted either to an individual or to a trading company has the same effect as a secret in trade or manufactures. The monopolists, by keeping the market constantly understocked, by never fully supplying the effectual demand, sell their commodities much above the natural price, and raise their emoluments, whether they consist in wages or profit, greatly above their natural rate.

In general foreign invested companies who come to America to start a company, to open a manufacturing business or whatnot, they actually provide much higher wages than American companies.

We have provided competitive salaries, affordable wages and good pensions to our employees and remain committed to do that.

The fact that hourly wages were so small and, in fact, the work week was down -- it is very positive. It means there are not a lot of wage pressures, not a lot of demands to add new workers.
