This one slipped by late on Monday from Japan .... just doing a bit of a catch up:

From the Japan Center for Economic Research on Monday, reported (very, very briefly) in the Nikkei: Japan's economy shrank 0.1% in June

  • Japan's real gross domestic product contracted 0.1% from the previous month in June
  • Declining for a third consecutive month
  • Real personal spending decreased 0.4% to slip into negative territory
  • Capital spending dropped 1.4%, declining for the second month in a row and weighing down the overall economy
