In the midst of the global financial crisis a Japanese internet firm specializing in the prediction of future, is doing roaring business. As more number of people now; than in good times seek reassurance about the future.

Zappallas Inc., having Japan’s largest network of fortune-telling websites (catered as a mobile content), is seeing a big boost in its business, in the last couple of months.

If numbers are an indication of the skyward going business; have a look at some of them:

The Firm posted a 61% rise in net in the first half of this quarter.

The firm revised its expected profit upwards for this year.

Compared to last year, the firm’s registered users, who pay a set monthly fee, have already risen by 21 percent to 2.2 million or 22 Lakh.

Can't say of the people; but the firm is fully assured of its future.
