日本一!- ahri's unqualified thoughts #76
Easy to consume content: 1 quote, 1 tweet/storm and 1 article/video.
Today, we're embracing a full Japanese edition. We'll feature a quote from Miyamoto Musashi, some beautiful pictures from the Marunouchi area in Tokyo, and a video about Japan's macro-economy. Let's go—Ikimasho~!
PS: the reason is that I miss Japan, and lately, I've been consuming a lot of Japanese content: documentaries, manga, anime, video games.

An excellent thread, with high quality pictures from Marunouchi (near Tokyo Station/Imperial Palace). Enjoy :).
I miss Tokyo.
1 article/video
Kurumi Mori from Bloomberg takes us through Japan’s macro-economy history since the 80s. Highly recommend to watch it, it’s 8:45mins only.
The video is split as follows:
Intro
Economic Miracle (Let's never forget that Japan is the only country that has ever had a nuclear bomb dropped on it, not once, but twice.)
Bubble burst
Decades of deflation
Era of Quantitative/Qualitative Monetary Easing aka QQE (ngl, I had to Google this one.)
Inflation comeback
End of negative rates
Since I’m a novice on this topic, I love discovering new things in this such an easy to consume format, before diving deeper. Bloomberg Originals, SCMP, and Financial Times YouTube channels are good in that sense.
