Japan’s Market Crisis: The Hidden Impact on US Stocks
The overlooked risk U.S. stock investors should pay attention to right now
This Week in Investing
Japan is entering one of its most fragile fiscal moments in years and global markets are already feeling it.
Over the past few weeks:
📈 Long-dated Japanese government bond (JGB) yields surged to multi-year highs
📈 The 30-year yield climbed above 3.3%
📈 The 10-year moved toward 1.8%, the highest level since 2008
📉 And the yen continued weakening, reflecting rising investor stress
This isn’t just a Japan issue, it’s a global liquidity shock in slow motion.
What Triggered the Sell-Off?
Prime Minister Takaichi finalized a ¥21.3 trillion ($137B) stimulus package on November 20, nearly 2% of GDP, with proposals to expand to ¥25 trillion.
The problem? Japan’s debt-to-GDP ratio sits at 240–260%, the highest among developed nations. Rising yields mean borrowing costs are exploding for a country already drowning in debt.
Why U.S. Investors Should Care
Global Liquidity & Risk Appetite
As Japanese bonds sell off and the yen weakens, global liquidity tightens. Risk sentiment shifts, affecting U.S. equities, especially small caps and tech.
Volatility Spreads Across Markets
Investors fleeing yen risk can temporarily boost the dollar, impacting multinational earnings and currency-sensitive sectors.
💡 What You Can Do Right Now
With volatility picking up, this is one of the best times to apply a simple options strategy that lets you collect premium while positioning yourself smartly in the market.
I won’t dive into the details here yet but it’s a strategy I personally use whenever markets get shaky.
And in the later part of this newsletter, you’ll see exactly how I used it recently… and how it helped with my Japan trip.

Free Workshop Invitation
Fund your year-end holiday using the stock market… without buying any stocks?
(Even When Stock Prices Are Sky-High Now)
As we are approaching the end of the year, I want to share…
A big tip that will completely change how you fund your holidays.
A way to go to Japan almost for free.
Free?
I know what you are thinking.
No way.
But yes. I am heading to Japan this December and a big part of my trip is already paid for.
Nope... not using my savings.
And definitely not giving my partner the “eh… can sponsor or not?” eyes.
I funded it with options premiums collected using 1 simple strategy!
The BOSS Strategy!
Most people avoid the stock market when prices are sky high.
I do the opposite.
I use the current volatility to collect high premiums, consistently over 4 figures a month.
Yes, premiums are cash.
Cash that pays for my trip, my meals, my shopping… everything!
By using the BOSS Strategy, i get to:
✅ Collect premiums upfront (e.g., $250 per Nvidia contract)
✅ Set the exact price you want to buy Nvidia at later (get the stock only when it hits your target)
✅ Buy at a discount if it dips, or keep the premium if it doesn’t
This way, I never buy overpriced stocks at inflated prices.
Yet I still earn steady income that funds my Japan holiday and gives me the freedom to treat my loved ones to a proper year-end recharge.
