Description
Beijings travel warning sends shockwaves through Japans tourism and retail sectors, causing significant drops in stocks of major companies like Shiseido and Isetan Mitsukoshi. The warning, issued amidst growing diplomatic tensions, threatens Japans tourism industry, a rare bright spot in its economy. Chinese tourists, the top spenders, account for a significant portion of inbound consumption.
