#Bitcoin Faces Pressure as Japan's Yen Carry Trade Unwinds
Bitcoin's crucial support level near $88,000 is under scrutiny as global markets react to a major policy shift from #Japan .The Bank of Japan has signaled a move toward tighter monetary policy, increasing the likelihood of an interest rate hike. This development is causing the decades-old "Yen carry trade" to unwind rapidly.
The strategy, where investors borrowed cheap Japanese Yen to invest in higher-yielding assets like U.S. #stocks ,is becoming less profitable as Japanese yields rise to their highest levels since 2008. This unwinding forces investors to sell assets to repay loans, creating selling pressure across markets, including risk assets like Bitcoin.
#Analysts note that weakness in major global equity indices, such as the #S&P 500, often correlates with pressure on Bitcoin, suggesting a shared link to global liquidity. On-chain analysis identifies the $88,000 level as a key structural support zone for $BTC . A failure to hold this support could see Bitcoin test lower price areas near $76,800. Concurrently, a significant drop in retail interest signals a potential late-stage market capitulation.

I expect a drop in the S&P 500 of about 24%, to the range where price gaps were formed. That's when the rapid revaluation of assets occurred.

#S&P JUST HIT $USDT (TETHER) WITH A “WEAK” RATING
S&P Global downgraded Tether’s stability score to its lowest tier, citing rising reserve risk and limited transparency.
Their key factors behind the cut:
⚠️ $USDT’s exposure to “risk assets” like $BTC, gold, corporate bonds, and loans has climbed from 17% to 24%
⚠️ #Bitcoin alone now makes up ~5.6% of reserves
⚠️ Disclosure gaps remain around custodians and underlying counterparties
⚠️ No fully segregated reserve structure
S&P’s view: in a severe market downturn, these risks could make it harder for $USDT to maintain its peg.

USDT under pressure: why S&P Global gave Tether the lowest rating — and what it means for the market
S&P Global has once again reminded the market of an unpleasant truth: USDT, the world's largest stablecoin, remains the least transparent among critical financial instruments in the industry.
In its latest rating, the agency gave Tether a score of '5 — Weak', which is the lowest on the stability scale.

‼️S&P Global has just given USDT the lowest stability rating (the weakest score on their stablecoin scale).‼️
Reasons:
• 5.6% of reserves are Bitcoin (exceeds the overcollateralization margin)
• there are also gold, loans, corporate bonds
• audits and transparent proof-of-reserves like a cat cried
• regulation in El Salvador is “slightly” weaker than in most countries
At the same time, 75% of reserves are short US Treasuries (i.e. really low-risk securities), and in total Tether already holds $112+ billion in Treasuries → this is more than Germany, Saudi Arabia or South Korea. And 116 tons of gold in reserves.
Tether immediately responded: the report is “misleading”, the old rating models are a joke, they themselves drove investors into Lehman Brothers and other “investment-attractive” bankruptcies.
Paolo Ardoino wrote bluntly:
“Classical rating models have led investors to the collapse of investment grade companies. We continue to be the most liquid and reliable stablecoin in the world.”
In fact, the picture is absurd:
S&P scolds Tether for “risking” 5-6% of Bitcoin and gold, ignoring the fact that this same company is already the de facto 17th largest holder of US debt and holds more gold than many central banks.

The agency #S&P Global Ratings has downgraded the stability rating $USDT to the lowest level of its scale. Experts have questioned the ability of the stablecoin to maintain its peg to the dollar.
The report states that the collateral model includes assets with increased volatility, and the audit of reserves remains limited. Company #Tether rejected the agency's conclusions and stated that they distort the real state of affairs.
S&P noted that part of the USDT collateral is made up of riskier assets such as bitcoin $BTC , gold $PAXG , corporate bonds, and loans. The agency provided a calculation according to which bitcoin accounts for 5.6% of USDT in circulation with an overall collateral ratio of 103.9%.
According to him, a drop in the price of cryptocurrency or the value of other higher-risk assets "may lead to a decrease in the level of collateral".

S&P downgraded Tether's rating, calling USDT's stability 'weak'
S&P Global Ratings downgraded Tether's stability rating, calling USDT's reliance on risky assets a 'deep vulnerability.' Tether, in response, claims that the analysts' conclusions 'mean nothing' and do not reflect the actual state of reserves.
Rating 'weak' due to reserve structure
The agency assigned USDT a 'weak' status, downgrading it from the 'constrained' category. The formal reason is that Tether uses more risky asset classes, including bitcoin, gold, corporate bonds, and secured loans.

‼️S&P DOWNGRADES TETHER TO WEAK, ARDOINO RESPONDS: OLD FINANCE FEARS CHANGE ‼️
S&P Global Ratings has downgraded Tether's ability to maintain the peg between USDT and the dollar to weak, signaling increasing risks regarding the solidity of the reserves of the world's largest stablecoin.
According to the rating agency, the increased exposure to high-risk assets such as bitcoin, gold, secured loans, and corporate bonds, amounting to 24% of total reserves, would pose a threat to the stability of the token.
The critical point raised by S&P concerns bitcoin, which now represents 5.6% of USDT reserves, exceeding the over-collateralization margin of 3.9%. A price drop in bitcoin, combined with a decline in other risky assets, could, according to S&P, render USDT under-collateralized.
The response from Tether's CEO, Paolo Ardoino, was very harsh: the agency wouldn't have understood anything about how Tether operates, ignoring the company's profitability and the 23 billion in additional liquidity.
Ardoino accused S&P of representing old finance that fears change and uses propaganda tools to discredit companies like Tether that are solving the problems created by the greed of the traditional financial system.
Tether emphasized that USDT has operated for over a decade maintaining stability through banking crises, exchange failures, and extreme volatility, without ever denying a redemption request.
Despite the downgrade, USDT maintains a market capitalization exceeding 180 billion dollars.

👀👀👉November 2025 US Manufacturing and Services PMI Analysis
The latest data from S&P Global shows that the US Manufacturing PMI fell to 51.9 in November 2025 from 52.5 in October, marking a four-month low. This decline indicates a slowdown in manufacturing growth, though the sector remains in expansion territory (above 50). The drop is largely due to higher prices from tariffs restraining demand and a piling up of unsold inventory, suggesting potential deceleration in factory production in coming months.
In contrast, the US Services PMI rose slightly to 55.0 from 54.8 in October, reflecting continued robust growth in the services sector, which plays a dominant role in the US economy. The Composite PMI, which combines manufacturing and services, increased to 54.8 from 54.6, signaling overall accelerating business activity.
The survey commentaries note business confidence improvement attributed to expected interest rate cuts, the end of a government shutdown, and reduced political worries. However, inflation concerns persist due to rising input costs and selling prices.
