  Japan: The next stage of de-dollarization

The big drop in stock markets is due to the rate hike in Japan, the end of the carry trade and investors repositioning.

Attention! because Japan is the largest holder of U.S. Treasury bonds, and Japan is the most indebted country in the world in terms of GDP, and may need to sell bonds in view of its falling economy.

The United States will have to pay more for its debt to make it attractive.

Times of crisis are coming.

The US needs a war as a last resort to avoid losing its global power.
