Japan will restart trade negotiations with Trump. Automobile tariffs will be the most critical game in this round!
① The U.S. president-elect Trump's trade war has caused significant headaches for global leaders, among which, Japan hopes to restart trade negotiations and has stated that there is a consensus to include the elimination of tariffs on autos and auto parts in the negotiations; ② The USA is Japan's largest export market, with autos accounting for one-third of Japan's export volume. In the fiercely competitive auto transformation process, U.S. tariffs could very well become the "last straw" that overwhelms the Japanese auto industry.
Japan's basic salary increase in October reached a record high, creating conditions for the central bank to raise interest rates again.
