Explain to me like I'm five; why is Japans Long-term credit ratings at Standard and Poor's AA? Why is Sweden AAA?

I honestly don't get it, engineering major, know very little about econ.

Isn't Japans population decline and massive debt a huge risk when it comes to long term credit rating? Isn't Sweden with it's immigration and current political chaos extremely volatile? The Stockholm OMX has been going way down recently as well.

Any ideas welcome, thanks in advance.

this is just a /pol/ meme, if mass immigration will cause any problems it will take ~10 years at least, a couple of weak effeminate swedish boys getting mad seeing their perfect aryan girls twerking with ahmed and mohammed doesn't really affect the economy at the moment

Any ideas about Japan then?

Japan has been fucked since the late 80s. They just nirped themselves so they have proven to have no idea what they are doing

But then why does Standard and Poor give them a AA rating?
>>
>>1108695
the rating scale is a meme used for political flex in economic decisions

if the states isnt AAA credit, frankly nobody is

Interest rates on japanese debt are ridiculously low due to 20 years of "accomodative" monetary policy so the 200%+ debt/GDP ratio isn't that big of a problem.
