Amari, who spoke after the Nikkei stock average briefly hit a 15-year high, said the rise reflects expectations that corporate earnings will improve further and noted that the government needs to put policies in place to ensure this happens.


It is unusual for a policymaker to speak approvingly of an asset price bubble as the danger of it popping and wreaking economic havoc is well documented.
