Demographic trivia between Japan and US, a key difference..falling population V/S a population that increasing .. The reason that Japan consumer demand is dropping and US is increasing is becasue of US demographic growth.. that is one reason Nikkei is not Nazdaq.. <<<These changes underlie the fundamentals that drive the U.S. consumer market, about two-thirds of the economy.The Demographics identifies key demographic trends and analyzes their impact on the consumer economy. Age trends, domestic migration, immigration policy, income inequality and educational attainment are typical topics that are considered. These consumer fundamentals are key in current developments and the risks they pose to the outlook for consumption. One of the most striking findings to emerge so far is the accelerated pace at which these changes are taking place. For the first time in the 20th century, all states gained population. Moreover, the population gain over the ten years ending in 2000 was the largest in the nation's history. The previous record took place between 1950 and 1960 during the baby boom. The rate at which our population is becoming more diverse is also accelerating (see chart). The degree of racial and ethnic change between 1990 and 2000 is greater than that which took place between 1980 and 1990. >>> dismal.com
