The following chart is the most recent usd/jpy, I know the intervals are different but it is just too similar to ignore.

Same thing with Nasdaq composite.
2024:
Same de-leveraging in Korea, Same Yen Carry Trade.
2026:

2. Yen Carry Trade may just started.
Just my two cents, this august can be VERY risky and I will not be surprised to see stocks, bond jumping like meme stock/coin.
