What happened

Japanese household spending fell in July at the fastest annual pace in 2-1/2 years, according to government data published on September 1. Consumer spending declined 3.6 per cent year-on-year, marking an eighth consecutive month of decline. This spending trend is one of the key factors the Bank of Japan considers when deciding on interest rate hikes.
