Latest data released by the Japanese Cabinet Office - 8 July 2019

  • Prior 44.1
  • Outlook 45.8 vs 44.5 expected
  • Prior 45.6

Slight delay in the release by the source. The headline reading falls to its weakest level since June 2016 and continues to reaffirm weak sentiment seen in the Japanese economy in the second quarter of the year. The reading is a survey on workers to measure up consumer spending and current economic conditions.
