Most analysts, citing bad-debt problem, remain bearish on Japanese bank stocks
Article Abstract:
The state of Japan's banking industry is becoming worse as banks are unable to clear up bad debts. Government efforts to help the banks have also bogged down in political scandal. Meanwhile, banks that are in good health may not benefit from the country's economic recovery because the demand for loans is low and is still falling. All of these factors make Japan's banking stocks less attractive to investors.
