🚨 Record $12B Outflow from Japanese Stocks 🇯🇵 Japan’s stock market just saw a massive exit - nearly $12 billion pulled out in a single week, the biggest in history. Here’s what’s spooking investors 📈 Rising Bond Yields: Yields on 40-year Japanese Government Bonds hit a record 3.68% on May 29, 2025. With such high returns, bonds are now more appealing than equities causing capital to shift away from stocks. Economic Concerns: Investors are uneasy about: Japan’s growing fiscal deficit The weakening YEN (hovering around 144/USD) Tokyo’s inflation rate at 3.6% in May 2025 Expectations that the Bank of Japan may tighten monetary policy When bond yields spike and the YEN weakens, equity markets suffer. Japan just got hit with both. Will the BOJ step in to calm markets? Or are we looking at the start of something bigger?👀 Japan just sent a signal to the world: capital doesn’t stay where confidence fades.
