U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in his first in-person meeting with new Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama on Monday night, praised Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s economic policy as Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average topped the 50,000 mark<\/u> the same day.<\/p>\n

“Secretary Bessent mentioned that he runs a fund that invests in Japanese stocks and assets. He said that when Abenomics began, Japanese stocks were around 8,000, and since then, they’ve risen significantly — leading his fund to great success,” Katayama told reporters after the hour-long meeting.<\/p>\n

“He also noted that when he arrived at this building today, the Nikkei had surpassed ¥50,000, and commented that this new economic approach — whether one calls it ‘Takaichinomics’ or ‘Sanaenomics’ — which inherits the Abenomics spirit through responsible proactive fiscal policy, seems to be working very well and sending a positive signal.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
