Japanese intervention could trigger U.S. Treasury sales, Anas Alhajji warns
Japan may sell U.S. Treasuries to intervene

Anas Alhajji, managing partner, energy economist, market analyst at Energy Outlook Advisors LLC, highlights that Japan is among the largest foreign holders of U.S. Treasuries.

He explains that a unilateral Japanese intervention, involving selling dollars and buying yen at scale, could force Japan to sell its U.S. Treasuries to raise dollars, which may impact global markets.

Alhajji has previously analyzed how Bab al-Mandab disruptions and Asian LNG prices influence global markets. In another report, he encouraged a view of market cycles and macro trends through the lens of physics concepts. His commentary spans key intersections of energy markets, trading flows, and macroeconomic drivers.
