The Financial Times has published a preview of the Bank of Japan's June monetary policy meeting, described as a guide to what to watch in Tuesday's session. The article appears under the FT's Global Economy section. The full content is behind a paywall and only a brief teaser is available.
Keywords: Bank of Japan, Monetary Policy, Central Banking, Interest Rates, Financial Markets, Japanese Economy, Policy Meeting
The article argues that a ceasefire has revived the likelihood that central banks, including the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve, can treat the energy shock stemming from the Iran war as largely temporary rather than a lasting source of inflationary pressure.

The article, published on the Noahpinion Substack, examines whether China's economy is experiencing a 'zombification' process similar to what Japan underwent after its asset bubble burst in 1990. The author explains the Japanese zombie company phenomenon using academic research, particularly a 2008 paper by Caballero, Hoshi, and Kashyap, which showed that Japanese banks engaged in 'evergreening' — rolling over bad loans to insolvent companies at below-market rates to avoid recognizing losses on their books. This kept unproductive firms like retailer Daiei alive, locking up labor and capital that healthier companies could have used, and contributing to Japan's prolonged productivity stagnation. The Japanese government enabled this by supporting banks through capital injections and regulatory forbearance. The article then draws on reports from the Rhodium Group, the Dallas Fed, and various analysts to argue that China shows similar patterns since its real estate bust began in 2021: falling official non-performing loan ratios even as the share of loss-making enterprises rises, increased below-market lending, companies unable to cover interest expenses, and widespread suspicion that reported NPL figures dramatically understate actual bad debt, with some estimates placing true NPL ratios at 10–20% versus the official 1.5%. The article addresses the counterargument that state control of Chinese banks makes the zombie problem moot, contending that even if a financial crisis is averted, zombie firms still compete with healthy companies for labor, energy, raw materials, and real estate, reducing overall productivity. It further argues that government direction of lending toward manufacturing has added new zombies in sectors like electric vehicles and solar panels, where an estimated 30% of listed companies in some green-tech sectors qualify as zombies, contributing to severe price competition and collapsing margins. The article concludes that zombification may prove more consequential to China's economic trajectory in the 2020s than its export performance.
Keywords: China, zombie firms, corporate debt, state support, financial system, non-performing assets, credit allocation, systemic vulnerability

US stocks rallied sharply following an interim agreement between the US and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, according to Bloomberg Markets.

Shares of SpaceX also advanced, contributing to broader risk-on sentiment in markets.

A U.S.-Iran agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz has caused oil prices to fall, according to the Wall Street Journal. The deal is described as the first major step toward ending a conflict that has lasted nearly four months. Despite the development, uncertainty over the pace of recovery is expected to keep crude prices above their prewar levels.

A wave of AI spending enthusiasm among tech company executives is now facing a reckoning over costs, according to this Futurism article. Companies including Amazon and Meta had aggressively pushed employees to maximize AI tool usage — Amazon through employee leaderboards tracking AI token consumption and Meta through AI-usage performance reviews — but are now pulling back. The article cites several examples of runaway expenses: one employee reportedly spent over $150,000 monthly on AI tokens, one company allegedly spent $500 million in a month on Claude usage, and an Nvidia executive said AI costs for his research team exceeded what he pays the employees themselves. Research from the Ramp AI Index cited in the article puts average AI spending at roughly $7,500 per employee per month at the most AI-intensive companies. Both Amazon and Meta have since discontinued their AI leaderboards. An Uber executive stated that AI was not producing clear productivity gains relative to costs, after which Uber imposed a $1,500 monthly per-employee token cap. Experts quoted in the article recommend imposing token limits, deploying AI more selectively, and switching to cheaper models. The article notes that current AI token prices are effectively subsidized by model providers to attract customers, raising questions about long-term sustainability. It also reports that OpenAI is reportedly considering a price war with Anthropic by slashing its own rates, though the article frames this as a gamble whose durability remains uncertain.
Keywords: AI spending, corporate capital expenditure, CEOs, investment reversal, tokenmaxxing
