Economic calendar in Asia Tuesday, March 11, 2025 – Japan Q4 2024 GDP

more to come

The preliminary showing for Japan’s Q4 GDP was solid:

• ForexLive Asia-Pacific FX news wrap: Japan GDP data much higher than expected, yen up

• Japan Q4 GDP surges to +2.8% annualized (from +1.0% expected), deflator hits 2.8% – yen up

Moreover, Japan’s economic data more generally has been improving, which has given that Bank of Japan more confidence that’s its on the right (rate hike) path. This has been a tailwind for yen.

• This snapshot from the ForexLive economic data calendar, access it here.
• The times in the left-most column are GMT.
• The numbers in the right-most column are the ‘prior’ (previous month/quarter as the case may be) result. The number in the column next to that, where there is a number, is the consensus median expected.
• I’ve noted data for New Zealand and Australia with text as the similarity of the little flags can sometimes be confusing.
