The YEN collapse is pointing towards an inflationary crisis in Japan rather than deflationary. Japanese consumer costs are skyrocketing, while the Bank of Japan keeps rates at ultra-low levels. Could Japan be one of the first major economies to priced out of existence?

Japan is in trouble economically. Stepping out of deflation into an inflation spike from hell. All of Asia could descend into both an economic and energy crisis never seen before in history.

The Japanese YEN is about to lose its safe haven appeal, as oil inflation will hit Japan like a freight train. Could it lead to an economic crisis?

The Federal Reserve may increase interest rates and lift their terminal rate to a higher level. Japan and the U.K. are already in a currency crisis. Could Australia be next? As a divergence between dovish Central Banks and a hawkish Fed, may set off a wave of Foreign Exchange inflation.

The futures on the Japanese Yen are at a 23 year low. How 'low' can the Yen go without any intervention by the Bank of Japan? Japan could return to its 1970's economy of high prices, scarcity and a poor middle class.

Inflation maybe returning to its 2022 highs. Showing up in manufacturing, wages and services. China's rapid reopening could add energy inflation to global economies. The Federal Reserve's 'terminal rate' will be closer to 6% rather than 5%.

Crude price maintains its ascension. Holding above its support of $87 with $90 pb within sight. No recession in China, the economy is stagnating as a debt behemoth. Japan is now at the cusp of stagflation. Germany and the U.K. are aready there.

Bank of Japan intervenes for the first time in 24 years to shore up the collapsing YEN. The rally was token with the YEN still at two decade lows.

Central Banks loss of control: Coffee prices spike. Indicative to looming hyper-inflation on foods?

Gold the doomsday/inflation hedge is showing similarities to its January 2022 rally, as is oil and the commodity markets.

IS Bitcoin the new safe haven? The once traditional 'save haven'; the Japanese Yen, has fallen out of favor as Japan tackles the worst inflation in 40 years. Yet gold could be the hedge between crypto's speculative appeal and YEN instability.

Australian Consumer Price Index blows out to 7.30%, AUD and Aust bonds sell off. Reserve Bank of Australia Cash rate is far too low to have any impact on inflation. 5% could be the target. Emergency rate increase's cannot be ruled out.

*UPDATE* The Japanese YEN and Australian dollar (AUD) are now in freefall. With the YEN returning back to its 15 year lows. On the back of a China slowdown, which may turn into a recession. Food inflation is still sticky. *Update: RBA raises rate/s to 0.25% after April pause. AUD rallies. Central Banks return to tightening bias*

The Reserve Bank of Australia has lifted rates to 2.85% still below the yield expectations of the short end of the Aust bond market at over 3.50%. The Australian dollar sold off on the decision, lifting the oil price to two month high/s.
