How do the disasters in Japan and the ensuing clean-up efforts affect global trade and what does it mean for the rest of the world? Japan is the third largest economy in the world and a top exporter. Have Japan’s major trading partners seen a shortage of goods? The Japanese disaster could affect the U.S. economy in a number of ways, some positive and some negative. Moody’s reports there are six major channels through which the Japanese disaster could affect the U.S. economy: trade, interest rates, commodity prices, equity prices, currency movements and monetary policy.
