The challenge of shorting JGB is the same as shorting US Treasuries, they are monetized, and price manipulated. There has been a big out of the blue JGB rally in the last months. I'm looking for a ready BOJ data source to quantify the degree of debt monetizing of late. If anybody has it I will start tracking.

Also roughly 97% of current JGB's outstanding are held domestically inside of Japan. Just who are the owners? Japanese banks, pension funds, insurance companies, individuals mostly through the captive postal system. All these parties have bought into the facade/fantasy, and one can easily imagine the same kind of quid pro quo for buying Old Maid Cards (JGBs), via the use of an unregulated and sleazy Japanese Boyz network of robbing future generations and kids on tricycles via "loans", trading leaks, bailouts of bad bets, tipoffs, subsidizes, gushi girls, and all the eastern style trappings of the American school of Boyz criminal enterprise. You know the kind of people who would sell their sisters into slavery if it were "just overlooked".
