Pacific Assets could offer exposure to the Asia (ex Japan) theme, which over the 12 months to December grew its share price by 26% and its NAV growth outperformed the MSCI Asia (ex Japan) Index by 25.5% versus 13.1%. Again, the trust's shares trade at a discount to NAV (-8.9), but there is also Aberdeen's New Thai for investors who think it can continue to match last year's double digit gains. Witan Pacific (-11%), which last year brought respected Asia managers Gavekal and Matthews on board, replacing Nomura, would also offer exposure to Japan.
Here is JP Morgan's full recommendations list:

"Stock markets are riding high and corporate and economic data have defied expectations, playing straight into the hands of risk asset bulls." Or in the real world, the US economy contracted in Q4 '12 and the 4th largest economy in Europe (Spain) had a shocker (technical term) whilst retail sales continue to fall across the Eurozone. To me it feels exactly the same as 2012, where money was made in the last six months.
