Japan''s deficit reaches 8-year high as energy imports soar
04:59am, Thursday, 17'th Feb 2022 Beaumont Enterprise
TOKYO (AP) — Japan racked up a 2.2 trillion yen ($19 billion) trade deficit last month, an eight-year high, as the cost of energy imports soared, the government said Thursday. The Finance Ministry said exports edged up 9.6% in January from the same month the previous year. Imports jumped 39.6%, resulting in the sixth straight month of trade deficits, it said. The amount is the biggest since January 2014, when the trade deficit totaled nearly 2.8 trillion yen. Koya Miyamae, a senior economist at SMBC Nikko Securities, said the trade deficit tends to rise in January because of the New Year’s holidays, which pushes exports down. “But even taking that into consideration, the deficit is huge,” he said. Japan imports almost all its oil and gas. Prices have soared to multi-year highs recently, adding to global concerns about inflation. Tensions in Ukraine amid worries about a Russian invasion have pushed prices still higher. Meanwhile, Japan''s currency, the yen, has weakened against the U.S.
