Economists at the Bank of Japan (BoJ) have turned to a unique data set in the search of evidence of how wages and prices interact and are shaped by expectations, publishing their findings in a working paper today (June 21).

Yuichiro Ito and Sohei Kaihatsu of the BoJ's monetary affairs department use data from a Japanese workers' survey, which they say appears to be the only survey in the country to assess wage, inflation and consumption expectations over a long time period.
