Japan industrial output dips 0.1%

This fall is following the 3.4% drop in May resulting to three straight month of losses.

According to Moody's, Japanese industrial production unexpectedly declined in June, extending losses for a third straight month. Output fell 0.1% in June, after dropping 3.4% in May. As expected, the boost from autos is fading as sales to the U.S. weaken.

"The electronics industry is performing sluggishly, as semiconductor output dragged on the headline print. Electronics parts and devices and IT equipment output will rise in July according to production schedules. This is a disappointing result."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
