But keep your running shoes handy. The immediate risks are clear: If Japan stops buying America’s bonds, U.S. interest rates could spike. Homeowners with adjustable-rate mortgages could see costs jump. New car loans and credit cards would get more expensive. The U.S. government’s interest payments would soar, potentially affecting everything from Social Security to defense spending. But the opportunity is equally significant. A U.S.-Japan investment fund could: Channel foreign capital into productive assets rather than government debt. Create jobs through infrastructure and technology investment. Generate returns that benefit both nations’ citizens. Establish a model for unwinding other financial imbalances with Germany, South Korea and Saudi Arabia.
