Japan's economy suffers from zombiefication Market interventions, intervention spirals and, above all, the manipulation of the price of money downwards have their price. Japan's economy is suffering from a massive zombification of its companies. According to current figures, around 17% of Japan's private-sector companies are unable to service their debts under normal interest conditions. This is the result of decades of downward manipulation of interest rates, which served exclusively to finance ever-increasing government deficits. In the course of the bubble economy, we have forgotten how to tolerate short-term socio-economic pain in the form of small, sharp recessions. https://lnkd.in/e-73F2TF #japan #debt crisis #zombiefication #recession

🌏 Exchange rate uncertainty poses a significant threat to Japan's economic stability, as highlighted in a recent East Asia Forum article. 🇯🇵🔄 Here are the key takeaways: 1. **Volatility Concerns**: Exchange rate fluctuations can disrupt international trade and investment, potentially derailing economic stability. 2. **Economic Sensitivity**: Japan's export-dependent economy is highly vulnerable to unstable exchange rates, impacting competitiveness and trade balances. 3. **Trade & Investment Impact**: Uncertainties can deter foreign investment and complicate business decisions for Japanese companies engaged in global trade. 4. **Policy Suggestions**: Implementing an exchange rate peg could reduce risks and promote stability, providing a more predictable environment for economic growth. 5. **Learning from History**: Japan's past experiences with economic instability due to exchange rate changes underscore the need for effective policy formulation. 6. **Current Challenges**: With global uncertainties and rising interest rates, Japan must strategically balance monetary policy to maintain stability. 🤔 What are your thoughts on adopting an exchange rate peg for Japan?

#Japan #CentralBank #Economist I'm pro-Japan but I agree. Others take a gloomier view. Some argue that after three straight quarters of contraction or no growth, Japan has already fallen into mild stagflation. Long-term potential growth remains low, the yen is in freefall and demographic headwinds loom. Pessimists fret that Japan’s future is as a middling economy with burdensome debt, a weak currency and a greying workforce.

Japan's economic malaise has persisted for more than three decades, but opportunities are emerging, and growth is around the corner. I shared my thoughts with Jack Barnett at The Times as he pulled together this fantastic piece on Japan - "Land of the Rising Sun awaits a new economic dawn". 1. We think further intervention in the FX market is likely to take place only “when there are sharp foreign exchange movements that might threaten price stability...” while “... the decision to intervene has to be timed well as there is diminishing return on the effectiveness of each intervention.” 2. Despite the threat of deflation, weaker domestic demand, an aging population, and high debts, there are positives. “The silver economy can be a source of organic growth, particularly when retirees unleash their savings, which bolster consumption, and their needs lead to new developments in technology, such as AI robots and medical progression.” Link to the article: https://lnkd.in/e7_qfg4m #japan #asia #economy #lostdecade #boj Pantheon Macroeconomics

Japan is known for its strong economic fundamentals, yet its foreign direct investment (FDI) levels remain surprisingly low compared to global peers. Recognizing this gap, Japan's government is rolling out a series of strategic initiatives to boost FDI by 50% by 2030. These efforts aim to overcome unique challenges within the country's business environment, from complex bureaucratic processes to language barriers.

If you watch this video you will find a LOT of similarities between the rise of Japan in the 70s and 80s to the rise of China over the last decade or two. In Japan the policies ranging from finance to industrial and regulations were all synchronized and structured to work together along with strong government subsidies. Sounds very similar to China? The US did rebound by forcing the US Dollar which made US exports more attractive and imports from Japan more expensive (hurting Japan). Does the weakening of the dollar also sound similar to what could potentially happen as the US inflates away its debt by money printing? So... potentially the US could inflate away its debt resulting in the dollar weakening due to the dollar oversupply. To counter this the US should become a net exporter once again (which hasn't been the case for a long time now) and make it harder for imports (opposite of globalization). Economically disconnecting from the rest of the world and meeting its domestic needs by manufacturing domestically. Do you think that is a possibility? The US already has a positive immigration history so human capital will not be a scarce resource unlike other countries. https://lnkd.in/gtMFrHQi
