BREAKING: Iran directly rejects Pakistan’s claim that Iran and the US have reached an agreement to lower Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, saying the nuclear file is not even on the agenda for this round of talks in Switzerland or any later round until the US implements all of its commitments, and none of the nuclear committee members are part of the Iranian delegation, per Fars.
Iran also says IAEA Director Grossi has no role in the negotiations, with nuclear talks only to be considered after the US implements clauses 1, 4, 10, and 11 of the MOU including the immediate end to military operations in Lebanon and Israeli withdrawal, removal of the naval blockade, oil sanctions waivers, and full release of frozen Iranian funds.
Uh oh... The Japanese Yen has broken through the 160:1 USD level and is now at 161.5
This is after the Bank of Japan raised rates last week to the highest level in 35 years to defend the currency 😬
As long as the Yen keeps devaluing the Yen carry trade continues, that allows firms to borrow at lower rates in Japan and invest in U.S. assets.
The Yen carry trade unwinds when the Yen begins to appreciate, sparking a selloff in U.S. assets as borrowers rush to convert back to Yen and repay loans.
Is the BoJ about to trigger a flash crash?

All modern humans descend from populations that originated in Africa roughly 200,000–300,000 years ago.
It does not mean we are all Africans.
If you mean very ancient ancestry, then modern Dutch, Germans, Danes, Norwegians, and Swedes likely share some common prehistoric ancestors.
But the Viking culture, language, and society developed much later in Scandinavia.
@sceafa_studios@UnitedAlex7 Drenthe and Groningen were home to Germanic tribes and later Frisians and Saxons, but they were not the homeland of the Vikings. The Viking Age societies, Old Norse language, and Viking culture originated in Scandinavia—primarily Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.
Today, we have the largest stock market Bubble ever! On all metrics.
The 2nd largest Bubble was into year 2000. The https://t.co/kppuH9oBrc Bubble.
Here are the rate hikes which popped the Bubble in March 2000👇
Why would the same not happen today?

@sceafa_studios@UnitedAlex7 The Netherlands had Frisians, not “the original Vikings.” Vikings were Norse people from Scandinavia. Frisian influence? Yes. Viking origin? No
Now, over to the East Asia Semiconductor Belt, where the parabolic move continues. These types of moves do not end quietly; what feels prosperous today are the stepping stones to adversity.
Hyperscalers have turned from cash machines to cash incinerators. The return on capex investment is increasingly dubious. None of the bulls in the replies are refuting the points in my post or the ability/will of hyperscalers to continue this level of ivestment. https://t.co/BsRmkvAHcx
The AI bubble popped, but semiconductor stocks don’t know it yet. All it takes is a drop in the rate of growth, and we are there. GPU rental rates have dropped, hyperscalers have shifted from debt to equity financing, there are declining use cases after subsidies dropped and everyone has been sucked in.
It’s over. There’s an open gap at the 200 DMA, which is more than 40% lower.
