The proliferation of Japanese industries offers hope of possible chain integration

Japan’s industrial jumps jumped in November with the largest share since 2013, giving hope that the country’s automotive sector can surpass its semiconductor acquisition challenges.

Industrial production rose 7.2 percent last month compared to October, beyond what economists predicted. The reform was driven by 43.1 percent of the month-on-month resumption of automotive production, said researchers, who said some manufacturers appear to be rebuilding damaged materials faster than expected.

Takuji Aida, chief financial officer at Okasan Securities, said that although foreign purchases did not exist, it appears that supply chain problems which has plagued manufacturers in Japan was gradually eliminated.

The monthly data released by the Ministry of Finance, Trade and Industry represents Japan’s last major financial release in the calendar year. The November increase followed a slight gain of October 1.8 percent from last month.

The government also provided an overview of the current state of the industry, saying that the manufacturing sector was “showing signs of recovery” after saying “things will stop”.

Goldman Sachs analysts, who predicted an increase of 4.8 percent, also said that the production list was down again until the epidemic struck in January 2020.

“While monthly production may change between the deficit of semiconductors and other instruments, it seems to be slowly returning to strong growth,” wrote Yuriko Tanaka, an economist at Goldman Sachs, in a letter to clients.

Advertisers did well with their findings, pushing the Topix benchmark by about 1 percent and, briefly above the 2,000 line Tuesday morning.

But while some interpret these figures as a leading indicator of recovery beyond the last fiscal year ending March 2022, others they were very secure.

Takashi Miwa, a Japanese economist at Nomura Securities, said: “Some manufacturers have already announced the changes for December and January, so we need to be careful about what happens in the fourth quarter.”

Miwa added that Januaryware could pose a significant risk due to the spread of the Omicron species. “This could disrupt the development and strengthening of technological, IT and other industries that rely on semiconductor equipment,” he said.
