US Stocks Open into Mess but Whiff of Panic Fades after Japan Crashed 12% Today, 20% since BOJ Ended Free Money

This week starts out somewhat ugly. AI-hype-driven rally is losing hot air.

Who is still buying the US debt is an increasingly important question. Here are the foreign investors.

US production of crude steel edged down further. Nucor Steel moved up to #15 globally. US Steel, #24, gets acquired by #4, Nippon Steel.

China and Brazil shed large portions of their holdings, but the top financial centers loaded up.

As China unloaded Treasury securities and Japan propped up the yen, other countries loaded up.

An important thing to keep our eyes on these days.
