#yenbreaks155nearingyearhigh 🚨 Japan Has Triggered The Countdown to the Least Affordable Housing Market in Modern History The yen strengthened sharply to 155 per dollar after markets are pricing in a BoJ rate hike and intervention. Japan Is triggering a currency and housing crisis and Nobody Can Stop It, Not Even Japan or Washington. That's because your mortgage isn't priced off of the Fed's decision. It's priced off Treasury yields, usually the ten-year plus a little spread. So when yields rise, your mortgage rate rises. But here's the problem, the yen is at a forty-year low, and Japan keeps intervening to defend it. And the way they do this is they buy yen, and they sell dollars and even Scott Bessent had to dump Euros. But they gotta get the dollars from somewhere, and those dollars are parked in treasuries. Because you should know Japan is our largest foreign creditor. They hold $1.1 Trillion dollars worth of treasuries. And so last Thursday, they sold fifty-three billion of the treasuries in a single day to fund their currency intervention. And this just keeps happening again and again. Every yen rescue creates a forced seller in the treasury market, and the ten-year note just hit its highest yield since January of twenty five. The thirty-year just hit its highest since two thousand and seven. And all of this flows straight into the mortgage market. The same monthly payment buys you about ten percent less house than it did last month.$SOPH $AKE $IOST
