Japan's Cabinet Says Economy Still In 'Severe' State, But Production Rebounding - Reports

MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 25th November, 2020) The Japanese economy remains in a "severe" condition in November, but industrial production is "picking up" following the pandemic shocks, national media reported on Wednesday, citing the government's latest report.

The report links the rebounding production to a rise in car exports and domestic auto sales, according to the NHK broadcaster.

Private consumption and exports are also said to be demonstrating a moderate upward trend.
