Update:

The Japanese Yen and US treasury yields were a big part of my thesis, but after the recent change of rate cut expectations I think the Yen will be less likely to collapse.

There are many potential catalysts and I don't claim to know what it's going to be or when. I only claim that this is near the end and within 3-6 months the market will look entirely different.
