The BOJ seems to have taken a totally different approach to inflation and actually has an extremely loose policy right now. Even still, inflation has fallen.
Almost like monetary policy is irrelevant…?
Hmm. Just from a cause and effect point of view, this would imply monetary policy is relevant as the country that took a different approach has had different results.
No idea if that’s true though as correlation does not equal causation.
