Japan's capacity utilization just came in weaker than expected—down 5.3% month-on-month versus the prior 3.3% reading. That's a notable deceleration in industrial activity, and the kind of macro headwind that tends to ripple through risk asset markets. Worth keeping on the radar if you're thinking about broader economic tailwinds and whether we're seeing early cracks in global manufacturing momentum.

Japan has once again underperformed. Can we not be worried about these numbers... Is the global manufacturing industry about to cool down?

Japan's production capacity has once again underperformed. Now the global industry is really going to cool down, and a chain reaction is definitely coming.

Japan's recent data is really disappointing; it feels like the global manufacturing industry is about to cool down.

Japanese industry is struggling again. Is the global manufacturing sector really going to face problems now? The month-on-month change jumped from 3.3% to -5.3%, and this decline is a bit outrageous.
