Japan's 30-Year Bond Yield Just Hit an All-Time High — Why the World's Largest Carry Trade Is Unwinding
Three point four percent.
That's the yield on Japan's 30-year government bond. The highest in history. For a country with 260% debt-to-GDP — the highest of any developed nation — record borrowing costs are not a minor detail.
Japan also holds $1.2 trillion in US Treasuries. They're the largest foreign holder of American debt. What happens in Tokyo doesn't stay in Tokyo.
This video examines the mechanics of the yen carry trade, why it's reversing, and what the transmission channels look like for global markets.
What we cover:

How the yen carry trade worked for 30 years: borrow at zero, invest at 5%, pocket the spread — and why both conditions sustaining it are now breaking
The August 2024 crash preview: a quarter-point rate hike triggered a 12% Nikkei collapse, 1,000-point Dow drop, and an estimated $250 billion in carry trade unwinds — with 50-70% of positions still outstanding
Why the yen keeps falling despite rising yields — what currency weakness during rate hikes signals about fiscal risk perception
Japan's "impossible trinity": the BOJ can't simultaneously control yields, defend the yen, and maintain open capital flows
The repatriation math: Japanese institutions now earning 3% at home have less incentive to hold US Treasuries with currency risk
The failed May 2025 bond auction and what institutional buyers avoiding ultra-long Japanese debt reveals
How Japanese selling of US assets transmits to mortgage rates, stock valuations, and corporate borrowing costs
The demographic trap: shrinking workforce, aging population, and a dependency ratio that makes growth-based solutions impossible

The carry trade that funded global asset prices for a generation is dying. Rate differentials are compressing from both sides — the Fed cutting while the BOJ hikes. The structural assumptions underlying trillions in leveraged positions are reversing simultaneously.
August 2024 was the warning shot. The positions haven't cleared. The imbalances haven't resolved.
