Michael Gayed interviews Weston Nakamura once again during live market hours in Asia, as Japan implodes upon the LDP leadership election results, as Shigeru Ishiba stuns markets in a victorious runoff round against Sanae Takaichi to become Japan’s next Prime Minister. Weston discusses why NKY and USDJPY are getting idiosyncratically hammered.

Meanwhile, China unleashes multifaceted stimulus measures as the biggest market development out of Asia (if not globally) in the past week - Weston and Michael discuss if this is the real-deal, or just another movie replay.

Filmed live on Monday August 5, 2024 during the Japan AM trading session of Black Monday 2024, the day that Japan had blown up global markets.

Michael A. Gayed of The Lead-Lag Report and Weston Nakamura from Across The Spread are live, just as the NKY225 and TOPIX Indices see a stunning -12% single-day drop, with global indices across Europe and the US following suit, all thanks to a massive (continuing) surge in JPY.

Michael and Weston discuss the JPY carry trade unwind, the Japan equity market meltdown, and the broader global market spillover effects underway, as well as touching on concepts like NISA flows into US equities.

They also dig in to the Bank of Japan's shock rate hike at the July 2024 policy meeting that had just occurred 2 days prior to Black Monday.
