The Japanese economy grew by 6.0% on an annualized basis during the second quarter of 2023, much stronger than an upwardly revised 3.7% expansion in the prior period, easily topping market expectations of a 3.1% increase, a preliminary figure showed. This was the third consecutive quarter of yearly advance and the steepest pace since the December quarter of 2020, largely supported by a strong contribution from net trade, with exports growing the most in two years while imports fell for the third consecutive quarter. Meantime, government spending expanded further amid sluggish business investment and a drop in private consumption. source: Cabinet Office, Japan
