[11:25] The yen has continued to weaken. Yeah, it's bounced a little bit the last couple weeks, but in the bigger scheme of things, the yen has been much weaker than virtually anyone anticipated. There's a simple reason for that. Interest rates aren't high enough.

[34:37] I was very bullish on the yen I thought the yen was a great fragile non-fragile asset and it has it's up 10% this year with a lot of things down. I still think it's going higher. It's correcting a little bit and you know maybe wait it for it to back off a bit more but I think that it's going to go from say 143 to the dollar to 120 maybe even eventually close to 100 to the dollar which would be a big appreciation.

Graded early 2026-03-22. Yen weakened instead of strengthening: USD/JPY went from 144.62 at prediction to 149.33, away from the 120 target. Period low was 142.13 — never approached 120. Would need a ~20% move in 43 days, essentially impossible for a major currency pair.
