Japan GDP Biggest Miss In 18 Months; Slowest Growth Since Before Second Coming Of Abe Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/16/2014 - 19:13 Get long 'Depends' may be the most befitting headline for tonight's massive macro miss in Japan. For the 3rd quarter in a row, Japanese GDP missed expectations with a meager +1.0% annualized growth (versus a +2.8% expectation), and a tiny 0.3% Q/Q change vs expectations of a 0.7% increase, this is the biggest miss and slowest growth since Abe retook the economic throne after his chronic-diarrhea-prone first attempt to save the nation. No matter how hard they try to spin this, there's no silver lining as consumer and business spending missed expectations notably and the only Tokyo snow fell just last week so long after the quarter was over... and this is before a tax hike that is aimed at showing how fiscally responsible the nation and not simply an insolvent ponzi scheme alive through the good graces of the greater fools of leveraged carry trades.

Aren't we headed in the same general direction of pathetic 1-2% GDP growth?

NKY up 3% wow thats crazy
Futures Soar 40 Points In Hours On Hopes Of Futher Economic Weakness Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/16/2014 - 07:00 We summarized yesterday's both better and worse than expected Chinese GDP data as follows: "a substantial deterioration of the economy, one which was to be expected yet one which can be spun as either bullish thanks to the GDP "beat", and negatively if the purpose is to make a case for more PBOC stimulus." Sure enough here are the headlines that "explain" the latest overnight futures surge which has once again brought the S&P into the green on the year - a 40 point Spoo move in hours since yesterday's bottom when the Nikkei "leaked" Japan's economy is on the ropes :
Stocks Rise on China Stimulus Speculation Here one should of course add the comment that launched yesterday's rebound, namely the Japanese warning that its economy is about to contract, adding to calls for more BOJ stimulus, and finally this other Bloomberg headline:
The Strengthening Case for ECB Easing And there you have it - goodbye "fundamental" case; welcome back "central banks will once again bail everyone out" case. Hopefully today's news are absolutely abysmal to add "US economic contraction fear renew calls for untapering" to the list of headlines that should send the S&P to all time highs by the end of today.

Japan Base Wages Decline 23 Months In A Row Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/03/2014 - 08:20
Proving once again that you can't print your way to general economic prosperity, Abenomics took another shot to the chest last night as Japan's base wages failed to rise month-over-month for the 24th month in a row (the longest streak in history). Even after all the promises and hope of the spring wage negotiations, Abe's 'plan' to guilt employers into raising wages is not working; which is especialy problematic given the surge in inflation (as the 'real' wage slumped 3.1% in April) As Goldman warns, we caution against excessive expectations for sustained wage growth.

Curious to see what happens now that Seattle raised Min Wage to $15 by 2017 I believe...............that is ludicrous....I don't see how someone making a latte or flipping burgers deserves $15 / hour..............it just means prices will continue to rise and push us closer to low wage earners..............This Socialist Republic led by Obama is a "F'n" JOKE !!!!!! JMO and BOL........

JMO and BOL........ probably wont be that big of a deal, everyone seems overpaid in large expensive cities IMO when I lived in L.A> I paid 800 (25 yrs ago)for the tiniest shithole apt. Landlords get grossly overpair why shouldnt the burger flippers I guess. it seemed everyone but me was over paid.
