"Tokyo's May CPI excluding fresh food rose 1.3%, marking the sixth straight month of cooling. The data complicates the Bank of Japan's justification for a potential interest-rate hike in June. Energy prices fell due to government subsidies, while service prices rose 1.1%."
Author: Edward Chancellor
This book provides a profound historical and economic analysis of how interest rates function as the 'price of time' and the consequences of prolonged low-interest-rate policies, which is essential for understanding the Bank of Japan's current dilemma in normalizing monetary policy.
