This video explores the recent U.S. intervention in the Japanese yen market and the broader economic motivations behind it. Below are the key points:

The Intervention: A leaked note from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealed plans to buy $5-10 billion in Japanese yen (0:48 - 1:17). The video argues this may be a psychological maneuver designed to influence market sentiment without actually needing to spend significant capital (1:39 - 2:47).
The Economic Trillemma: The U.S. is facing a difficult choice between three goals: reshoring manufacturing, maintaining price stability (low inflation), and ensuring economic stability for the U.S. bond market (4:32 - 5:35). The creator suggests the U.S. is sacrificing the strength of the dollar to maintain these other two priorities (8:42 - 9:56).
Strategic Cooperation with Japan: Japan is the largest foreign holder of U.S. debt. A weakening yen puts pressure on Japanese investors to sell U.S. Treasuries, which would hurt the U.S. bond market. Therefore, supporting the yen is framed as a move to protect the U.S. ability to borrow (12:01 - 14:48).
The Role of Scott Bessent: The video details Bessent's history as a successful macro investor, specifically his work on major currency trades in the 1990s and 2012, suggesting he is strategically using market psychology to achieve government policy goals (15:10 - 18:47).
Investment Perspective: The creator concludes that while no one knows when a major market shift will occur, they are watching the 30-year Treasury yield, the yen, and commodities like gold for signals of future money printing or market crises (23:37 - 25:06).

No B.S. Just Charts.

Gold just delivered a major wedge breakout, and Gareth Soloway walks through what the explosive move off that pattern signals for the near-term path and the long-term target. Does gold zoom straight back to all-time highs, or is a retrace into support the more likely play first? Gareth breaks down the technicals and lays out the levels that matter.

Gareth starts with the gold wedge pattern and why the breakout was so explosive, pointing to the energy that builds as a wedge tightens to a head. He identifies the $4,375 area as the next resistance zone, a former support level that has flipped to resistance, and explains why a pullback into it would be normal. He also covers why his most bearish physical-buy scenario in the $3,500 to $3,600 zone is not off the table even after the breakout.

From there Gareth overlays the current chart against the 1980 gold peak, matching the structure beat for beat, and makes his case for why cycles rhyme: human fear and greed do not change. He ties the compressing gold cycles to fiat money supply growth and rising global debt, and points to his calculator target of $13,000 per ounce in the 2029 to 2031 window.

Gareth then turns to silver hitting a key resistance wall, the $54 level to monitor to the downside, and quick reads on platinum, palladium, and oil, which he sees stuck in a sideways wedge with nothing to do until it resolves.

Passive income in Singapore sounds like the dream: build it once, and it pays you forever. I have 8 different sources that together bring in over SGD 24,000 a month, and after running all of them, I can tell you there is no such thing as truly passive income.

Some of these take five minutes to set up and pay you loose change. Others pay real money, but only for as long as you keep showing up. So instead of just listing them out, I'm rating all 8 on three things: how easy it is to start, how much you can actually earn, and how passive it really is.

In this video I go through every single source I have, exactly how much each one pays me, and which ones are actually worth your time.
