Mumbai, Nov. 26 -- Japan's coincident index came in at 114.6 in September, marking its strongest reading since June and pointing to a steady recovery across key sectors. Household spending is gradually improving, corporate investment is rising on stable profits, and services activity has picked up even though industrial output remained flat. Consumer inflation stayed firm, while the Bank of Japan kept short-term rates unchanged at their highest level since 2008, signalling a careful and gradual path toward policy normalisation.
