Japan announced December industrial
output gains of 2.5 percent from November on Friday. Economists interviewed by
a news agency in the village of Kyodo estimated growth at less than half of
that.
Factory output, a reliable reflection
on Japan’s overall economic wellness, increased for the 11th straight
month, said the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
Industrial shipments and Industrial inventories in Japan were
also on the rise in January, up 2.4 and 1.0 percent respectively.
