Put simply, an arbitrage trade means borrowing cheap money to buy high-yield assets. As the yen appreciates, the interest-rate spread narrows, and liquidation stampedes are inevitable—how many times has history repeated itself?

Carmignac’s take is quite interesting—if the yen intervention really triggers a cascade of forced liquidations, global markets will all have to shake, especially those high-leverage carry trade players.

Arbitrage trade closures—this “thing” isn’t fast or slow; it all comes down to the Bank of Japan’s mood and how they’re acting.
