LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch)
Japanese November economic data out Friday showed a
mild easing for unemployment but also lingering deflation and weaker household
spending than expected
The unemployment rate fell to 4.1% from October's 4.2%,
the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported, beating expectations for no change
from a Dow Jones Newswires survey
However, the core consumer price index, which
excludes volatile fresh-food prices, dropped 0.3% last month for a 0.1% decline
from the year earlier, in line with expectations
Deflation is a key concern for
Japan's new government, with newly returned Prime Minister Shinzo Abe calling
for greater action to push prices back up
Meanwhile, spending by households of
two or more people rose a price-adjusted 0.2% from a year earlier, lagging
forecasts for a 0.8% gain, according to the Dow Jones Newswires survey

The mathematician of the Complutense University of Madrid, José-Vidal Ruiz Varela, argues that Europe must raise its borrowing limit, leaving its deflationary policy.
