"Japanese Stock Market Crash 1989

In May 1989 the Bank of Japan began to raise its discount rate from 2.5% to counter a perceived threat of inflation. The original rate had helped propel the Nikkei 225 index from 11,500 as recently as 1984 to about 38,900 by 1989. The discount rate stood at 6.0% by the end of 1990, and the Nikkei index fell below 9,000 by 2002, shedding over 75% of its peak value."
