🚨 BREAKING UPDATE
Japan is reportedly preparing a major stabilisation move, with estimates suggesting up to $530B in U.S. equities could be sold to support domestic financial conditions.
Why this matters:
A shift of this size doesn’t happen in isolation. It points to stress beneath the surface and signals tightening global liquidity, especially as Japan adjusts policy after decades of ultra-easy conditions.
Macro implications:
Repatriation of capital back to Japan
Reduced overseas risk exposure
Increased pressure on global equity and risk markets
Crypto angle:
Liquidity tightening can create short-term volatility, but it also accelerates the separation between weak assets and strong, structurally important networks.
What to watch:
Bond yields, yen strength, and global risk sentiment. These moves often ripple through markets faster than expected.
