    The Yen has appreciated 8% against the USD this year, Japan has raised its rate to 0.5%, still way below the rest of the world, US and Japanes bond rates are getting closer and if the US cuts rates, they will get really close.

    If any or all of that conspires, the cost of repaying yen funded postions will cause forced asset sales elsewhere and as Japan is the largest US bond holder by far (12.5%), with 60% of Japan's foreign exchange holdings, she's a gonna go bang. If they stick rates up properly, as Goodfella says, there be trouble
