In recent weeks, a recurring phenomenon in yen trading has sparked debate among investors and strategists: whether Japanese authorities are attempting small-scale interventions to curb the yen's further weakening. On Thursday, during the New York trading session, the yen-dollar exchange rate surged by up to 0.5% within two minutes, only to quickly reverse all gains. A similar scenario unfolded on Tuesday, with the yen experiencing a sudden significant rise, comparable in magnitude. On May 8, the yen briefly rose by 0.2% before turning downward. According to Jin10, while the exact cause of these fluctuations remains uncertain, traders are closely monitoring the situation, as these movements may indicate Tokyo's discomfort with the yen's weakness. Even the mere expectation of potential intervention by authorities could make betting against the yen increasingly risky. "My interpretation of these recent movements is that Japan's Ministry of Finance is uneasy about the USD/JPY exchange rate breaching the 160 mark and aims to deter the market from testing this level again," said Gareth Berry, a strategist at Macquarie Group. "Even before the exchange rate reaches 160, authorities have initiated 'gentle' countermeasures and 'warning shots,' pointing to this intention."

Daily trading volume for Strategy's perpetual preferred stock STRC reached an all-time high of $1.5 billion on May 14. According to NS3.AI, based on that volume, the company could raise up to $735.4 million, which is enough to purchase 9,066 BTC.
