Andrew Collingwood is an equally skeptical journalist. Lately, both have realised that - post-Ukraine, post-Afghanistan withdrawal - the old, unipolar, US-led world order is in its death throes. In its wake, something new is being born. But what shape will that take? That will depend on a combustible combination of economics and geopolitics; trade and military muscle. Each week, our duo take three off-radar news stories and explain how each is shaping our multipolar reality.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/multipolarity-5951710"},"episode":{"title":"Special Edition: Japanese Bonds and the Unwinding of the Global Financial System","slug":"special-edition-japanese-bonds-and-the-unwinding-of-the-global-financial-system","published_at":"2026-01-29T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/multipolarity-5951710/special-edition-japanese-bonds-and-the-unwinding-of-the-global-financial-system","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/multipolarity-5951710","url":"https://multipolarity.captivate.fm/episode/special-edition-japanese-bonds-and-the-unwinding-of-the-global-financial-system","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/87e56a6a-39eb-444c-b083-94e6e9ecb424.mp3","summary":"After Greenland, the rupture in the Transatlantic Alliance was made visible at the WEF conference in Davos. Mark Carney said the quiet bit aloud. But the real implications are beginning to be felt in the deep financial plumbing that undergirds the global economy. Now, a Japanese bond market sell-off is unsettling larger forces. If Japanese interest rate then rocket, they may need to liquify their massive US Treasury bond holdings. Beyond the geopolitics, this is going to turn nasty – economic levels of nasty. We’ll be exploring the full low road prospectus in this bumper-length members-only show.
