Carry trade unwinding and trenlines broken. these are not short term ones, they persist for the very long term and are changing as are yields. Next, the dollar is up near the downward sloping line. If that breaks UP, then the market will decline. period. But how can that break up while the YEN carry unwinds? I think it can by putting pressure on other currencies, with the Yen and Dollar rising in tandem. That would not be pretty for any assets. i hope the BOJ can come to the rescue.

I think Aussie and NZ are the highest yielding currencies.
