  • The effect of 107th OPEC Ordinary Meeting on oil prices and economic performances in Japan

    The aim of this paper is to show the influence of the 107th OPEC Ordinary Meeting (meeting) and investigates the relationships between oil prices and economic activities, using an exponential generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (EGARCH) and a vector autoregressive (VAR) model from 1991 to 2008 in Japan. We find that levels and volatilities of oil prices increase after the meeting. We examine the effects of it on Japanese economic activities, employing a Granger-causality test and data before and after it. The empirical result reveals that each price of regular gasoline and diesel has information to be useful to predict the economy after the meeting. On the other hand, volatilities of regular gasoline and diesel price have information to predict the inflation and economic growth before the meeting. respectively. After the meeting, however, these volatilities change to be useful to predictive both inflation and economic growth. Thus, we conclude that the decision of meeting is related to not only the domestic oil prices, but also the macroeconomy. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    This article uses a Lag Augmented Vector Autoregressive (LA-VAR) method to examine whether Bank of Japan's (BOJ) clarification of the commitment under the Quantitative Easing Policy (QEP) affects the relationship between macroeconomic variables. We compare the results with those obtained when a standard VAR approach is used. These empirical results are as follows. First, the exchange rate does not contain information on future economic performance from 2001 to 2006. Second, the bi-directional causality between the yield spread and stock price is observed in the period before the clarification of the commitment. However, there is no evidence of the causal relationship in the period after the clarification of the commitment. © 2011 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.

    In this paper, we examine how certain foreign disasters the September 11 terrorist attacks, Iraq War, and Hurricane Katrina-affected the stock prices of the Japanese petroleum industry. Using the market model with and without heteroskedasticity, we analyze and estimate the extent to which these disasters impacted the stock prices from two perspectives: (1) the influence of these disastrous incidents on the entire petroleum industry and (2) the effect on individual firms. The empirical results reveal that an increase in the stock prices of individual firms caused an increase in the stock prices of the entire Japanese petroleum industry after the September 11 terrorist attacks. However, the Iraq War and Hurricane Katrina had both negative and positive influences on the expected profits of individual firms and did not have a significant effect on the stock prices of the Japanese petroleum industry.

    This paper empirically analyzes whether a hypothesis from Aukrust (1977) applies to two phenomena in Japan: wage spillover between internationally competitive industries (exposed sectors) and domestically protected industries (sheltered sectors), and wage- and price- setting in those industries. We find that Aukrust's assumptions hold in the case of Japan, as all three of the cointegrating relations assumed by the Aukrust model are confirmed to exist. We also find the causal relations in Japan are more complex than the relations assumed by Aukrust.

    This article examines the effectiveness of the Bank of Japan's Zero Interest Rate Commitment Policy (ZIRCP). Using the Exponential Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity model, we present an empirical analysis of the volatility of return on Japanese interest rates for the short-, medium-, long- and super long-term. We find that each interest rate is affected by the ZIRCP. However, the ZIRCP stabilizes the daily change for only the super long- term interest rate. This suggests that the ZIRCP effect includes the decrease in interest rate and the reduction in super long- term variability.

    This paper investigates the relationship between the price of oil and economic growth in Japan during the period from 2000 to 2008 using an exponential generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (EGARCH) model. We employ a residual cross-correlation function (CCF) approach developed by [Cheung, Y.W., Ng, N.K, 1996. A causality-in-variance test and its application to financial market prices. journal of Econometrics 72, 33-48]. The empirical results reveal that the economic growth rate Granger-causes the change of oil price in mean and variance and the change of oil price Granger-causes the economic growth rate in mean and variance. Previous studies have analyzed the response of economic activity to oil price shocks. However, we analyze the causality relations for both means and variances, and identify the direction of information flow and the timing of causation. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    In the advanced economies, declining natural interest rates and the low inflation rates have been the common long-run trends so that the zero interest rates are no longer exceptions. Unconventional monetary policies like quantitative easing and forward guidance are implemented frequently and we examined their effectiveness and related issues based on the US and the Japanese historical experiences.
    We focused on the situation where two economies implement unconventional monetary policies simultaneously and analyzed theoretically and empirically the spillover effects between them. We examined the influences of unconventional monetary policy on the income distribution under the trend of worsening inequality.
    We hypothesized the possibility that the long-run trends in socio-economic factors could contribute to the low and stable inflation expectation. We examined it through analyzing the results of the two large-scale surveys, which we conducted before and during the Covid-19 pandemic.

    The Bank of Japan has been expanding liquidity under low interest rates since 1999 in order to recover the domestic economy after the collapse of the asset price bubble economy and the Lehman shock. This policy is called non-traditional monetary policy. In this study, we examined whether the non-traditional monetary policy implemented by the Bank of Japan created inequality problems for income and consumption. The results obtained are as follows. (1) It could not be confirmed that the implementation of non-traditional monetary easing policies increased income inequality. (2) The increase in the monetary base did not affect the income and food expenses of both the low-income and high-income groups.

    After the failure of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in September, 2008, the world economy experienced a large and serious recession and financial crisis. The central banks of major countries adopted "the non-traditional monetary policy" immediately to stabilize the financial system and stimulate the economy. As a result of having investigated the relationships between the policy response of the central bank and the policy effect on the market, the empirical results were as follows. (1) After the Federal Reserve Board carried out a non-traditional relaxation policy, the middle- and long-term interest rates fell, and the volatilities of the short- and middle- term interest rates fell down. (2) After the European Central Bank reduced the policy interest rate, the stock prices did not rise.

    The BOJ implemented the zero interest rate policy and the quantitative monetary easing policy from the late 1990s to early 2000s. The difference between these policy effects was as follows; (1) the zero interest rate policy increased volatilities of yield spreads but the quantitative monetary easing policy decreased them. (2) The announcements as to the termination of the zero interest rate policy affected the market expectation form but it as to the termination of the quantitative monetary easing policy did not do it.
