Japan's Q2 GDP Climbs 1.1% Amid Energy Disruptions Dampening Domestic Demand

Japan's economy grew 1.1% year‑on‑year in the April‑June quarter, the latest data reported by The Tribune. The modest rise signals a rebound after the pandemic‑induced slowdown, but domestic demand has been dampened by energy disruptions. Power supply shortages have affected businesses and households, limiting consumption growth. Analysts warn that continued energy constraints could restrain further expansion, prompting the government to seek solutions to stabilize supply.
