Japan economy shrinks unexpected 1.8% in second quarter

Tokyo (AFP) - Japan's economy shrank more than estimated in April-June,
revised data showed Monday, piling pressure on the government to delay
another sales tax hike, while the central bank faces calls to expand its stimulus.

The figures will come as a blow to Prime Minister Shinzo Abe as his programme
aimed at rejuvenating growth struggles to gain traction.

Second-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) shrivelled 1.8 percent from
the previous three months, worse than the previously estimated fall
of 1.7 percent, the Cabinet Office said.

The latest statistics confirmed the world's third largest economy had suffered
its steepest quarterly drop since the 2011 quake and tsunami disaster.

On an annualised basis -- if the performance was replicated over a 12-month
period -- GDP contracted 7.1 percent, compared with 6.8 percent in the
preliminary estimate. That makes it the worst performance since early 2009,
at the height of the global financial crisis.

The disappointing result was largely caused by the negative impact of
April's sales tax hike, the first for 17 years, which was introduced to lift
revenue and reduce the country's massive national debt.

Prior to that the economy had been on the upswing as Abe's growth blitz,
dubbed Abenomics, helped sharply weaken the yen, giving a lift to
exporters' profitability and driving a stock market rally last year.(ソースに続く)
