For decades, Japan’s cheap currency helped fuel investments around the world. But the story has turned: the yen is creating new risks for US debt, global market…

Feels like they are complicating the transaction more than needed!<br>They could have simply setup a Currency Swap Agreement between the Central Bank of Japan and The Fed!! And considering the deep structural and trade relations they both share could furthur facilitate cushion from "fuel to funds" through a prediction model.<br>The fundamentals of the Abe-nomics was to bring back healthy inflation.
Japan is pretty much at the level of Southeast Asian countries now. They'll lose their developed nation status soon, and young Japanese women will probably be moving overseas in huge numbers 🤣
This somehow explains how japans economy has been stagnant and fine for years. Greedy corpos were double dipping in UD investments.<br>Imagine investers settling for stable rather than ask the ceo why does line not go up and fire some much needed entry level workers to generate less value at the bottom and more at the top.
First, the Yen will return from the US 50% less valuable (compared to the market price of gold, it falls to 10%), secondly, half as many will return from the US, since they have been renewing loans at chronic loss for 30 years, and thirdly, the Japanese have adapted their society and culture to the life of capital lenders. Monetary entropy has eaten up money, no economic peak is eternal or static, so that nesting (or even resting) on it would be eternally profitable, just as water in a pressure vessel absorbs the excess air pressure at rest.
Transparency of speculated value solve that. Savings felt everywhere as phantom dark money's tucked in with deities and dodo never to flutter in light again?
Look at Japan's industrial structure—it's completely outdated. For a country with that population, the number of top-earning companies is pathetic lol How can there be any hope for Japan? They couldn't even pull through their crisis back in the 90s when they actually had clout.
Why are DW journalist and experts look so happy about it?
The currency isn't the problem. Japanese interest rates are normalizing after a long period of monetary easing. Japanese pensions and financial institutions purchased a lot of European and American sovereign and corporate bonds in the past. Now they don't need to at the same volume. The current exchange rate is favorable for repatriation. And Japan's foreign reserves owns too much US treasuries in the first place, so it's a good opportunity to book some profits. (The largest carry trader has always been the Japanese government.)
美日蛇鼠一窩<br>Japan-USA, a duo circulate Ponzi Scheme
You should just declare bankruptcy, many countries did this. It is not possible to service a debt that big and particularly growing that FAST, you are toasted anyway.
簡単です。<br>日米が戦争始めた時、＄１＝￥１円です。米国が日本人民間人を大量に殺戮して日本が負けた時、日本は米国経済を破壊する作戦を立てた、それが＄１＝＄３６０円です。３６０倍にすると、爆発的な輸出攻勢を日本が米国経済に掛けたのです。激安だから売れる、買うアメリカ人。気が付いたら、米国経済の製造業はほとんど潰れて、働く場所が無くなるアメリカ人。<br>さらに、米国は資本の移動の自由を日本に要求していたので、米国財務省の外貨＝金延べ棒＆日本円を次々と日本に流出！<br>２６年後、外貨を失った米国財務省は、破綻を認めたニクソンショックを発表するに至る。ざま～と叫んだ日本だな。<br> それを現在半分以下＄１＝￥１６０で実行してるだけですね。トランプは日本企業にアメリカ工場を作れ！と盛んに宣伝し、日本はその通り実行してる。日本企業が＄もらって日本で使えない、アメリカ工場や販売で全ての利益を日本円に変え（財務省の外貨を奪い）て、日本に持ってくる＝アメリカの経済力を日本に持ってくることは、<br>アメリカ一国の経済力を弱らせているのですね。米国１強は世界が望まないから、円安が受け入れられている。
Japan doesn't need any help. Japan is second largest creditor in the world, after Germany. It has 3.5 trillions usd foreign assets. Now sell all those assets and convert it to yen and see what the value of yen then.
Trump frames it like US is the good guy always helping out an ally. He forgot to mention Japan is the largest foreign holder of US government debt at over $1T. Trump is protecting American financial interests, plain iand simple.
The music you use is unbearable to the point I had to kill the sound and watch it with subtitles.
Japan becoming USA problem is a long tradition 😅
Shuffle shuffle
The weak yen is hurting us Japanese because it's making overtourism even worse.
Ah, the Yen Carry Trade. Propping up the AI bubble which is deflating rapidly.
A bit late to the party. Yesterday's news.
Our currency, your problem!!!!
Just make Japan adopt the dollar and end all this financial suffering. Japan is basically an American puppet state anyways so just have them adopt the dollar already.
