Ranked: Countries with the Largest Currency Reserves
China holds over $3.4 trillion in foreign exchange reserves, nearly 3x more than Japan. Seven of the world’s 10 largest reserve holders are in Asia, reflecting decades of export-led growth. Despite being the world’s largest economy, the U.S. ranks only 13th because the dollar is the world’s primary reserve currency. Source: James Wong, Visual Capitalist

The market is massively rebuilding one of the most powerful, but also one of the riskiest trades out there: shorting the yen
📉 Many investors are once again betting on further yen weakness, even as the currency trades near a very sensitive level around 160 against the dollar, and have built their largest bearish positions on the yen since 2017. ⚠️ Market now seems to see these risks as largely priced in. A BoJ rate hike is no longer a real surprise, neither is intervention from the Ministry of Finance. The yen can still weaken gradually from here but the risk of a brutal squeeze rises as bearish positioning keeps building. Source: Christophe Barraud, Bloomberg
