Thoroughly prepared policies and decisions
September
2012Abe elected president of Liberal Democratic Party (LDP)
December Abe’s LDP won Lower House election with comfortable majority
January
2013
Japan’s 2nd largest supplemental budget proposed
Abe forced Bank of Japan (BOJ) to share an accord with the government for the first time
MarchAbe nominated a dovish governor (Kuroda) and deputy governor (Iwata) for BOJ
Abe decided to join the Trans-Pacific Partnership talks (TPP)
AprilRevolutionary monetary easing introduced by newly-appointed Kuroda
Successfully persuaded G20 to accept BOJ’s policy and weakened yen
The current LDP and Prime Minister Abe are not who they once were
Countermeasures against deflation have been executed in a timely manner
Three anti-deflationary policymakers
Korekiyo Takahashi
Abandoned the gold standard (hence weakening the yen) in 1931 during his fourth term as Finance Minister of Japan in order to bring Japan out of the Great Depression. Instituted aggressive fiscal policy directly financed by BOJ.
Shinzo Abe
Developed three-pronged “Abenomics” in 2013 as Prime Minister. Attempting to pull Japan out of its long- lasting deflationary environment by changing how people think.

Korekiyo successfully implemented reflationary policies after which the New Deal was modelled
Abe is emulating these successful ideas 80 years later
Franklin Roosevelt
Introduced the New Deal in 1933 while President of the United States in response to the Great Depression. This series of economic programs incorporated some Keynesian theories.
7
“Abenomics” consists of three “bazookas” (Aso’s contribution to FT on 19 April 2013)
Ultimate goal is to end Japan’s deflation and move toward an inflationary environment
People’s expectations for future prices are key

Summary
Contrary to the past, BOJ shares the government policy, and Japanese corporate management and peoples support the change this time.
Abenomics, which consists of monetary, fiscal, and growth policies, might promote portfolio rebalancing, and may encourage companies and households to use their ample cash.
As a result of the depreciated yen, corporate earnings may increase by as much as 45%.
Index-led equity market has created huge dispersion among stocks, making the expertise of a bottom-up stock picker like TMA necessary to navigate the market.
Achieving 2% inflation is not an easy goal but a positive cycle of expectations for future prices can change existing behaviors of people and corporations.
