đš MARKET ALERT: BOJ INTERVENES â USD/JPY CRASHES đŻđ”đ
USD/JPY just saw a sharp, sudden dump â the textbook signature of Bank of Japan intervention.
No press conference. No verbal warnings. Just direct action to defend the yen.
đ What triggered it?
âą Yen weakness pushed beyond a critical threshold
âą Speculative short-yen positions were overcrowded
âą BOJ chose force over guidance
â ïž Why this matters
This isnât a routine move. When the BOJ steps in decisively, it signals rising urgency and low tolerance for further FX instability.
đ„ Market implications
âą FX volatility is back in a big way
âą Carry trades are now at serious risk
âą Risk assets should stay on high alert
đ Key takeaway
When central banks stop talking and start acting, markets listen â and reprice fast. The yen just reminded everyone whoâs in control.
