Economists think prices may have continued to fall injuly after being flat injune. Unlike the rest of the world, china is experiencing a rare episode of sliding prices. Japans economy experienced this back in the 1990s earlier, i spoke to professor eswar prasad, the former chief at the International Monetary funds china division, and he explained whats behind the slowing economy. The Consumer Demand has been very weak, and when Consumer Prices have been flat, its likely to show that we are in deflationary territory. No producer prices, the Prices Producers pay for imports of Raw Materials and intermediate goods, have already been falling and squeezing industrial profits. If we are not in deflationary territory, we are very close and i think we are very close and i think we will see an official confirmation closely. And other asian economy confirmation closely. And other asian economy that confirmation closely. And other asian economy that suffered i asian economy that suffered from Falling Prices japan. Some say china could be an a similar situation injapan was in back in the 1990s, some people calling it a balance Balance Sheet recession. Do you agree with the assessment . Demand is slowin with the assessment . Demand is slowing very with the assessment . Demand is slowing very fast, with the assessment . Demand is slowing very fast, we with the assessment . Demand is slowing very fast, we have with the assessment . Demand is slowing very fast, we have seen l slowing very fast, we have seen very little investment by the private sector, even official investment by democrat is falling. Corporate debt has been coming down for some extent but certainly the real estate sector is not doing well, Property Developers are very exposed to the slowdown of the sector, but china still has its tools to prop up the economy, the question is whether they will roll out those tools and, most important, whether they can do whats necessary to revive private and business confidence. Theres a risk could see what happened to china, we are not there yet, it all depends on what the government does now. They have tools to use. Government does now. They have tools to use, yet government does now. They have tools to use, yet we government does now. They have tools to use, yet we havent tools to use, yet we havent really heard any major announcements when it comes to stimulus measures from beijing. Are you expecting any . The government are you expecting any . The government seems are you expecting any . Tue government seems to are you expecting any . Tte government seems to want to send a message that everything is under control, that the economy is still on the right track, but i think they will have to see some significant measures such as reducing interest rates, Making Money Easierfor interest rates, making money easier for households and companies to access, some fiscal stimulus thats more Government Spending and tax cuts. I think the real issue is whether the government can get confidence back in the private sector so households can go and spend rather than save, and businesses start investing. They havent accomplished that yet so far and i think thats really the key both to short term growth but also longer territory on the economy. Well, that data will come on the back of chinas latest export performance, which showed a 14. 5 drop in exports forjuly. Thats the lowest since the covid 19 pandemic hit back in 2020. Weak Global Consumer demand has hit china known as the factory of the world hard. Imports for last month have also highlighted waning Domestic Demand as consumers tightened their purse strings. Well, the country that experienced deflation orFalling Prices back in the 1990s is now seeing the opposite. We are talking aboutjapan. Inflation injapan has been hovering at around a ito year high, and that means that despite a rise in wages, consumers arent feeling the benefit. In fact, Household Spending has slipped for a fourth straight month. Earlier, i spoke to Consumer Sector specialist nobuko kobayashi, who explained by people arent buy more despite the wage hikes. Thejune the june number that was out that shows that year on year growth on Household Spending was negative for four consecutive months, he was negative in june consecutive months, he was negative injune by 4. 2 , and this is damaged by the growth that was real negative, this was negative for 15 consecutive months. So thats a balance of the nominal group offset by the wage increase. Thats been around 2 3 plus, which is good news, but the Cost Increase has been hovering around 4 , therefore offsetting the nominal wage growth. In this dampens of course consumers appetite to spend more. So dampens of course consumers appetite to spend more. 50 it appetite to spend more. So it needs to happen appetite to spend more. So it needs to happen here . Appetite to spend more. So it needs to happen here . Because Japanese Companies are exactly used two racing salaries, will they raise salaries further or will the government do something to try and prop up the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeinu a the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeing a little the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeing a little bit the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeing a little bit of the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeing a little bit of a the Consumer Sentiment . We are seeing a little bit of a sea seeing a little bit of a sea change in mortality injapan, so whats pushing for the wage increases the Cost Increase, and also the labour shortage. 0ver and also the labour shortage. Over the long run, the government is pushing for the Labour Market so that there will be more fluidity in a Labour Market which will push out the wage over the long term. But at the end of the day, its down to the employerss appetite to reward and retain the talent properly. Theres a Consensus Injapan thats growing that employees have not been compensated enough, and we are seeing that japan is now almost a cheap labour cost country because the other countries, including asian countries, have been raising their wages so rapidly. This is instrumentalforjapan this is instrumental forjapan to this is instrumentalforjapan to attract talent overseas, so if this causes a wake up call, will be sustained momentum to increase wages.

But there are will go down five kilos. But there are many will go down five kilos. But there are many reasons why Tomato Prices have continued to go up. Unseasonable rains and extreme weather not only damage the cop democrat, but its made it difficult to transport it. And then there are the longer term issues, things such as lack of adequate storage and processing infrastructure. None of this can be sorted out overnight, which is why Tomato Prices are now expected to go up prices are now expected to go up even further before they begin falling down in september once the new crop comes in.

Along with tomatoes, prices of onions, another staple in indian cooking, have been going up indian cooking, have been going up as well. This is a wary not just for politicians but also indias central bank.
