Abstract: The Japanese economy has been following a recovery path after it hit the bottom in April 1999. Since the fall of 2000, however, the economy has entered an adjustment phase triggered by the abrupt demand contraction in the IT-related sector worldwide, which is a growing industry. One of the characteristics of the current adjustment phase is that adjustments in economic activity are broadly concentrated in the IT-sector until present. In the following, we will examine this by using the business conditions of the June Tankan.
