Forex Flash: Japan Q3 GDP to be revised up from -0.9% QoQ to -0.8% - Capital Economics

FXstreet.com (San Francisco) - The Japanese Cabinet Office will publish the final Gross Domestic Product Q3 report on Sunday at 23:50 GMT (8:50 Tokyo time). Market Economics team expects Q3 GDP to be revised up slightly from -0.9% q/q to -0.8%.

"This is due to non-residential investment having been less weak than was expected," Market Economics points. "The Ministry of Finance's quarterly investment survey showed that business investment excluding software fell by 2.5% q/q in Q3 (in nominal terms), the third consecutive contraction. This was lower than the preliminary estimate of -3.2% for non-residential investment in the GDP release, suggesting an upward revision which could boost the third quarter growth rate, albeit only slightly."
