Government spending rose by 8.3% and private consumer spending increased by 6.9%, buoyed by improved rural demand.

Japan's economy unexpectedly slipped into a recession in the October-December period, with provisional GDP contracting by 0.4% year-on-year and 0.1% quarter-on-quarter. Weak domestic demand, attributed to high inflation, hampered growth. This challenges the Bank of Japan's interest rate normalization plans and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's fiscal policies. Despite some positive indicators, such as a low unemployment rate, sluggish growth is anticipated due to negative household savings rates. Germany overtook Japan as the world's 3rd largest economy.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has decided to keep its key interest rate unchanged at 6.50%. This decision was based on concerns over high inflation and disappointing economic growth. India's annual retail inflation rose to 6.21% in October, surpassing the central bank's tolerance band. Additionally, the country's GDP growth for the July-September quarter was the slowest in seven quarters at 5.4%. Investors will now be monitoring the RBI for any steps taken to address the liquidity deficit in the banking system, which could potentially lower market interest rates.
