Ishiba Government Unleashes Stimulus Plan

The minority government in Japan led by Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba signed off on a new stimulus package worth $140 billion US dollars last Friday in a bid to boost domestic consumption and bolster the economy. How might this affect the growth prospects of Japan at a time when the world is bracing for a return of Donald Trump to the White House? We get analysis from Stefan Angrick of Moody’s Analytics.
