According to The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter), Japan’s Finance Ministry has confirmed that Japan has officially lost its status as the world’s top creditor for the first time in 34 years. This shift indicates a potential change in global capital flows, which could impact forex volatility and investor sentiment across both traditional and digital asset markets. Traders should note that changes in Japan’s economic influence may increase uncertainty in JPY-paired crypto trading, and could trigger shifts in liquidity for major cryptocurrencies as global investors adjust their portfolios.
