#USJapanYenIntervention

#美方委托高盛与摩根士丹利干预日元 Potrivit Financial Times, Trezoreria SUA a folosit Fed-ul din New York pentru a vinde euro și a cumpăra yeni cu ajutorul Goldman Sachs și Morgan Stanley. Aceasta este o susținere directă extrem de rară pentru yen din partea SUA în aproape 30 de ani; ultima acțiune similară a fost intervenția coordonată a G7 în 2011. În același timp, Reuters a capturat și caietul secretarului Trezoreriei SUA, Becent, pe care scria: "Cumpără între 5 și 10 miliarde de yeni." Vreau să știi ce ^_^ vreau să știi De ce au intervenit Statele Unite personal? Ceea ce se teme cu adevărat SUA nu este deprecierea yenului în sine, ci că slăbirea continuă a yenului ar putea declanșa riscuri financiare mai mari. Pe de o parte, dacă yenul continuă să se deprecieze unilateral, ar putea crea cu ușurință o așteptare consensuală de piață privind o vânzare în lipsă, escaladând în cele din urmă într-o criză a cursului de schimb; Pe de altă parte, o cantitate mare de capital global împrumută de mult timp yeni cu dobândă scăzută, investind în active de risc precum acțiunile americane, AI și criptomonedele. Dacă yenul se va aprecia rapid în viitor, tranzacționarea arbitraj ar putea fi concentrată și închisă, afectând și mai mult piețele financiare globale. Această intervenție a avut mai mult ca scop stabilizarea așteptărilor pieței decât schimbarea tendinței pe termen lung. La urma urmei, 5 până la 10 miliarde USD nu este mare pentru o piață forex cu o cifră de afaceri zilnică ce depășește 7 trilioane USD. Ceea ce determină cu adevărat traiectoria yenului rămâne diferența de dobândă SUA-Japonia. Dacă Fed continuă să mențină ratele dobânzilor ridicate în timp ce majorările de dobândă ale Japoniei sunt limitate, fondurile vor continua să circule către dolarul american, ceea ce va face dificilă inversarea tendinței pe termen lung doar prin intervenția valutară. Această mișcare seamănă mai degrabă cu trasarea unei "linii roșii de politică" pentru piață, spunând fondurilor să nu vândă în lipsă yenul unilateral, fără costuri. Poate reduce riscurile pe termen scurt, dar nu poate rezolva problemele fundamentale. Ceea ce determină cu adevărat viitorul yenului rămâne Rezerva Federală, Banca Japoniei și schimbările în diferența ratelor dobânzilor SUA-Japonia. Economia globală este o tablă de șah, strâns interconectată. O singură rachetă poate schimba prețurile petrolului, un baril de țiței poate modifica inflația, iar o singură creștere a ratei poate influența prețurile globale ale activelor. Evenimente aparent fără legătură se vor reflecta în cele din urmă în portofelul tuturor prin lichiditate.

🚨 BREAKING !!! JAPAN AND U.S. LAUNCH JOINT INTERVENTION TO SUPPORT YEN 🇯🇵🇺🇸 • Joint Action Announced 📢: Japanese Foreign Minister Satsuki Katayama is set to announce on Monday that Japan and the United States have executed a coordinated intervention to support the struggling Japanese Yen, according to Reuters. • Historic Move 🏛️: This marks the first joint currency intervention between the two nations since 2011. The action comes as the Yen recently plunged to its weakest level against the US dollar since 1986. • Ongoing Operations 📉: Minister Katayama will describe the move as a "joint action" with the U.S. and confirm that the market operation is "still ongoing," signaling continued pressure on currency markets. • Caught on Camera 📸: A Reuters photograph revealed U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's notepad from a Friday Cabinet meeting, which visibly listed an action item: "To-do: Buy Japanese Yen (JPY) $5-$10 billion." This massive, coordinated liquidity injection highlights the severe pressure on the BOJ and the global urgency to stabilize major fiat currency pairs. $EWJ $BTC $ETH #USStepsInForYen #DailyOrbit

Two developments today don't look connected at first glance, but they're pulling in the same direction. The US 30-year Treasury yield climbed to 5.28%, and separately, the US Treasury directly intervened in the yen market for the first time in over two decades buying yen through the New York Fed, a day after Japan itself sold an estimated $59 billion to defend its own currency. The mechanism worth understanding here is the yen carry trade. For a long stretch, investors have been borrowing cheaply in yen and deploying that capital into higher-yielding assets US equities and crypto included. That trade works exactly as long as the yen stays weak and the rate differential holds. It's been one of the quieter sources of liquidity flowing into risk assets this year. A sudden, coordinated effort to strengthen the yen which is precisely what today's intervention was designed to do creates real risk of forcing that carry trade to unwind. When it does, investors holding those positions have to buy back yen to repay their loans, and that kind of unwind has historically hit crypto early and disproportionately hard relative to the actual size of the currency move. The August 2024 yen unwind is the clearest recent example of this exact pattern. Layer a 5.28% 30-year yield on top of that a level that makes long-term borrowing meaningfully more expensive and puts pressure on growth-oriented assets broadly and today isn't really two separate stories. It's one macro environment tightening from two directions simultaneously: a stronger yen threatening carry-trade liquidity, and higher long-term rates raising the cost of capital everywhere else. None of this is a reason to panic or exit positions reactively. But it is a reason to treat this coming week differently than a normal one liquidity conditions are more fragile than usual, and the fastest, most useful signal to watch is USD/JPY itself. A sharp, sustained move lower would be the real tell that a carry unwind is underway, not just a risk sitting in the background. NFA #30YYieldAt19YHigh

🚨 MASSIVE CRASH IN JAPAN $USD/JPY plunged from 164 to 157 after Japan spent $52.8B defending the yen and the U.S. Treasury joined by selling euros to buy yen This was America’s first yen intervention since 1998 It seems like a yen carry trade unwind could happen soon

🇯🇵 Is Something Bigger Brewing for the Japanese Yen? The yen has remained under pressure, and speculation is growing that policymakers could take further steps to stabilize the currency. Some reports suggest that markets are watching not only Japan's response, but also whether other major economies could become involved if currency volatility increases. If that happens, the conversation would extend beyond Japan. The yen is one of the world's key safe-haven currencies, and sharp moves can influence: 📈 Global equity markets 💵 Bond yields 🌍 Cross-border capital flows That said, currencies are driven by fundamentals over the long run. As long as the interest-rate gap between the U.S. and Japan remains wide, sustained yen strength may be difficult without meaningful policy changes. What Matters Most 👀 Whether Japanese authorities take further action. 🏦 Whether central banks coordinate their response. 📊 How interest-rate expectations evolve in both the U.S. and Japan. Markets often react more to policy expectations than to headlines alone. If coordinated action ever emerges, volatility across global markets could increase significantly.

🚨JUST IN: 🇯🇵Japan just made a major move to defend the yen. USD/JPY dropped from 164 to 157 after Japan intervened in the currency market, spending around $52.8B to support the yen. The bigger story: For years, investors have borrowed cheap yen and used it to buy risk assets around the world. If the yen continues strengthening, that trade could start unwinding. And when leverage built up over years starts moving, the impact rarely stays in one market. This is something every risk asset investor should be watching.

JUST IN: U.S. Treasury joined Japan in buying yen for the first time in over a decade, to halt its sharp decline - FT. $USDS

This is a big one markets under-noticed. The US Treasury intervened to support the Japanese yen for the first time in nearly 30 years, selling euros to buy yen through Goldman and Morgan Stanley after the currency hit its weakest against the dollar since 1986. A coordinated dollar-yen intervention is not a routine event, it's a stress signal. Crypto should care about this more than it does. A disorderly yen is the fuse on the carry trade, the same unwind that has triggered violent, correlated selloffs across risk assets before, crypto very much included. Direct intervention says authorities see the move as dangerous enough to act. If it stabilizes the yen, that's quietly risk-positive; if it fails, a carry unwind is one of the cleaner paths to a broad liquidity shock. BTC's green today, but I'm watching dollar-yen as closely as any crypto chart. FX is where the next surprise usually starts. DYOR. #USYenIntervention #OKXOrbit

U.S. JOINS JAPAN IN BUYING YEN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER A DECADE. The U.S. Treasury reportedly joined Japan in intervening to buy yen for the first time in more than 10 years in an effort to slow the currency's sharp decline.

This isn't just Japan's problem anymore. For the first time in almost 30 years, the US Treasury stepped in to support the Japanese Yen. I don't think this is only about saving Japan. Japan holds over $1.14 trillion in US Treasuries, making it America's largest foreign creditor. If a collapsing yen ever forces large-scale Treasury selling, US bond yields could climb even higher at a time when they're already flashing warning signs. The way I see it, this wasn't a rescue for Japan. It was an attempt to stop the next problem before it reached the US bond market.
