We had the news drop that there is to be a special meeting on March 16 and 17

Posted here: Japan meeting announced - Abe, Kuroda, cabinet misters & more

LOL - nice typo ...

I don't believe this, but its said:

  • Abe initiated the meetings to scrutinise global economic themes to prepare for the Group of Seven meetings, which Japan chairs this year.

Yeah, I'm calling b/s on that.

It'll be to try to figure out how to get the economy back on track (IMO). At least, it will on the March 16 date. the one on March 17 will be so they can all drink loads of Guinness (guesses as to why in the comments are welcome)

A guest at the meetings will be Columbia University Professor Joseph Stiglitz.
