Japan Pulled The TRIGGER - The U.S. Dollar Is Getting DESTROYED

Dec. 8, 2025

U.S. DOLLAR COLLAPSE - FOLLOW THE MONEY

World Affairs In Context

Japan is suddenly at the center of the global financial conversation... and for good reason. After years of decline, the Japanese yen is strengthening, the U.S. dollar is on its longest losing streak in 50 years, and the Bank of Japan may be preparing for a surprise interest-rate hike that could shake markets worldwide. In this video, we break down exactly what’s happening and why Tokyo, not Washington or Beijing, is driving global currency trends right now.

In today’s video, we go deep into how Japan’s unique economic pressures, its staggering debt-to-GDP ratio, global energy prices, the Fed’s upcoming rate decisions, and unexpected policy shifts are combining to reshape the yen, the dollar, and the balance of power in global markets. With the critical BOJ meeting approaching on December 18–19, this moment could determine not just the future of Japan’s currency, but the direction of global capital flows for years to come.

If you’ve been following my recent videos on Japan’s debt crisis and the chaos brewing in its bond market, this episode completes the picture. We’re now looking directly at the currency war unfolding between the yen and the dollar—and what it means for investors, policymakers, and the global economy.
