Abstract

This study offers a new perspective on Japan’s “lost decades.” We first argue that, even after the collapse of the Heisei bubble, the revival of a bubble economy is not always a remote possibility, but is occasionally even considered likely. We further argue that, theoretically, expectations of future bubbles generate a crowding-out effect on investments. Based on these observations, we argue that this crowding-out effect emanating from bubble expectations may have been a headwind to economic growth during the lost decades.
