Japan had the highest debt-to-GDP ratio of any major economy, any international event could have set it off the edge. In a globalized economy it doesn't need to be directly related to have an impact.

That was interesting to watch on Sunday - the cracks were already showing. When their market opened this morning (middle of the night for us), it sank pretty hard. I figured ours was going to have a similar day. Tech stocks have been whiplashing all week and the fed can't decide when to cut rates so things weren't alright. Also someone mentioned unemployment rates are trending up too. Recession coming?
