MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 16.11.2015
Overnight, the Cabinet Office of the Japanese Government published Preliminary Third Quarter Gross Domestic Product numbers.
Unfortunately, the data that was presented for the third biggest global economy was extremely disappointing.
The markets had expected a GDP number of -0.1%, however, the actual release when it was announced stood at -0.2%.
Last night’s negative GDP data is the second quarter in succession that the Japanese economy has contracted. From a technical standpoint, the Japanese economy has now entered into a recession.
The sluggish GDP data will now put further pressure on the Shinzo Abe administration and the Bank of Japan to continue with a programme of economic stimulus and structural corrections.
The Japanese Government has however tried to put a positive spin on the latest GDP Data with Akira Amari, who is the Economics Minister saying “While there are risks such as overseas developments, we expect the economy to head toward a moderate recovery thanks to the effect of various (stimulus) steps taken so far.”
