For the first time ever, the Bank of Japan is selling stocks out of its vast portfolio. The announcement shocked the markets though mostly the media.

The latest discussions reveal a stark decline in US housing construction, hitting its lowest point since May 2020. Homebuilders are cutting prices like never before, yet mortgage rates have surprisingly dipped to their lowest in a year.

The podcast also highlights a surge in mortgage refinances amid weak purchase activity, pointing to economic signals that suggest trouble ahead.

This isn't just about "fiscal consolidation" worries and France's government budget, the real issue behind everything is economic differentials.
