@lifegoalinvestments: Japan is the largest foreign holder of U.S. government debt, owning roughly $1.1 trillion of U.S. Treasuries. That means what happens in Japan HAS A MASSIVE IMPACT ON THE UNITED STATES! For decades, Japan was the foundation of one of the world’s biggest trades: the Yen carry trade. Investors could borrow Japanese Yen at near-zero interest rates, convert that money into other currencies, and invest in higher-yielding assets around the globe — including U.S. Treasuries. This helped fuel demand for U.S. debt and provided cheap capital to markets worldwide. But as Japan’s interest rates rise, that trade becomes less attractive. Money that once flowed out of Japan could start moving back home. And when one of the largest buyers of U.S. debt changes behavior, the impact can ripple through the entire financial system. Global markets are more connected than most people realize. What happens in Japan can affect your investments, interest rates, and the cost of borrowing in America. What do you think — is this a temporary shift or the beginning of a bigger trend? #Investing #Markets #Economy #Treasuries

If the Fed lowers interest rates in America, we have inflation. How does Japan have zero interest rate rates and not have inflation?

Then Japan needs to cancel the US debt they own if the US is helping bail out. Will reduce our total debt as well then

Being this vulnerable to the stability of the Japanese currency, is a terrible but preventable predicament. The US government should demand proof - affidavit, with perjury penalties, that individuals and corporations buying T bills, did not borrow money to buy them.
