TWO BELLS February 4, 1928 TWO BELLS E Published Every Saturday by and for Employees of the Los Angeles Railway BOUQUETS V'01. VIII LOS ANGELES, FEBRUARY 4, 1928 No. 35 New Compressor Tester Three Divisions Pass Seven Mark In January If concentrated effort and cooperation mean anything, it looks as if 1928 is going to be a banner year in the securing of witnesses per accident, according to the January report. Three Divisions went over the top with seven witnesses per accident. Division Four heads the list with 7.88; Division Three is close on its heels with 7.79 and Division Two closes up on the two leading Divisions with 7.34. Division One fell in the cellar from third place in December 1927, and Division Five dropped from second position to fourth. In comparison with January 1927, it will be seen that each Division is making special effort to establish a record for 1928. This is how the months of January 1927 and 1928 compare from reports submitted by the Claim Department: January 1927 January 1928 Division One 5.23 6.45 Division Two 6.42 7.34 Division Three 6.08 7.79 Division Four 7.18 7.88 Division Five 6.75 6.80 Now that January is off with a good start, how about February?

    WINPEC Working Paper Series No.E1611 November 2016 Financial Crises and the Central Bank: Lessons from Japan during the 1920s Masato Shizume Waseda INstitute of Political EConomy Waseda University Tokyo,Japan Financial Crises and the Central Bank: Lessons from Japan during the 1920s Masato Shizume Waseda University Abstract * A series of financial crises following a boom during World War I marked the turning point for the emergence of prudential policy in Japan. An economic backlash after the war created mounting bad loans. After the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) introduced a special treatment facility for the devastated area. The BOJ hoped to rescue solvent but illiquid financial institutions, but the facility was abused by banks that were already in financial distress, paving the way toward a financial crisis. Banking panic spread nationwide in the spring of 1927. In 1928, the authorities introduced new arrangements for prudential policy with mergers and acquisitions, new types of regulations, and dual inspection by the Ministry of Finance and the BOJ. These arrangements restored financial stability while imposing a new constraint on monetary policy. * Masato Shizume would like to thank the Seimeikai Foundation for financial support. 1 1. Introduction In this chapter, we look at the conduct of prudential policy in Japan during the 1920s. Japan experienced economic stagnation and financial instability following a boom during and right after World War I (WWI). An economic backlash and the government’s attempt to keep economic growth high even after the war created mounting bad loans. Then, the Great Kanto Earthquake hit the Tokyo metropolitan area in 1923, and the Bank of Japan (BOJ) introduced a special treatment facility for the devastated area.

  • The Japanese Economy During the Interwar Period

Among them, the Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 and the Showa Depression of 1930-31 marked turning points. The Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 was the consequence of persistent financial instability because of the incomplete restructuring in the business sector and postponements in the disposal of bad loans by financial institutions. The crisis brought reforms in the financial sector through large-scale injections of public funds and the amalgamation of banks. The Showa Depression of 1930-31 was caused by the Great Depression, a worldwide economic collapse, which had been intensified in Japan by the return to the Gold Standard at the old parity. Japan escaped from the Great Depression earlier than most other countries through a series of macroeconomic stimulus measures initiated by Korekiyo Takahashi, a veteran Finance Minister who resumed office in December 1931. Takahashi instituted comprehensive macroeconomic policy measures, including exchange rate, fiscal, and monetary adjustments. At the same time, the Gold Standard, which had been governing Japan’s fiscal policy, collapsed in the wake of the British departure from it in September 1931. Then, Japan introduced a mechanism by which the government could receive easy credit from the central bank without establishing other institutional measures to govern its fiscal policy. This course of events resulted in an eventual loss of fiscal discipline.

TDA 6351-0321 Portfolio Summary Statistics Rolling periods 1926–2020 Portfolio Summary Statistics Asset allocation and length of holding period have an impact on the risk and return of a portfolio. This table shows the compound annual return and other performance measures over 12-, 60-, and 120-month rolling periods for different portfolio allocations since 1926. Rolling-period returns are a series of overlapping, contiguous periods of returns. For example, when examining 12-month rolling periods, the first rolling period is January 1926–December 1926, the second is February 1926– January 1927, the third is March 1926–February 1927, and so on. Notice that as the stock allocation increases, the returns increase. However, these higher portfolio returns are associated with much greater volatility (risk), as evidenced by the range between highest and lowest returns for each holding period and the perce nt of periods that were negative. An investor with a long-time horizon may be able to deal with short-term volatility in order to receive the higher return opportunities that more aggressive portfolios may provide. Conversely, an investor with short-term goals might seek the relative stability of a conservative approach to help minimize losses.
