Japan’s $7 trillion bond market has been the foundation of global liquidity for decades, funding everything from US Treasuries to equities through the yen carry trade. That system is now breaking as the Bank of Japan raises rates, inflation stays elevated, and political pressure builds ahead of Japan’s snap election on February 8. In this video, we break down: - Why Japan’s bond selloff is a structural shift, not a normal correction - How $450B+ in yen carry trades could unwind - Why rising Japanese yields threaten US Treasuries and global liquidity - What a weaker yen could force Japan to do next As deVere Group CEO Nigel Green warns, Japan’s role as the world’s financial shock absorber may be over. #geopolitics #Japan #JapaneseYen #YenCarryTrade #JapanBondCrash #JGB #BankOfJapan #GlobalMarkets #MarketCrash #BondMarket #USDTreasuries #CurrencyCrisis #MacroEconomics #FinancialCrisis #GlobalLiquidity #InterestRates #Forex #YenUnwind #EconomicCrisis #WorldEconomy #Investing
