関西地方の20代男性が、9月に観光で訪れた山口県岩国市で、米軍岩国基地を敷地外から撮影しました。撮影直後、米兵に基地内に呼ばれ、写真の削除を求められたうえに、男性自身の顔写真も撮影されたと訴えています。
日本の法律では基地の撮影は禁止されていませんが、日米地位協定については議論がある状況です。男性が体験した行為の違法性については、弁護士からも指摘が出ています。

The dollar index (DXY00) extended this week’s rally on Wednesday, rising +0.32% to reach a 1.75-month high. Political uncertainty in France and Japan has put downward pressure on the euro and yen, respectively, benefiting the dollar.
Wednesday afternoon saw additional gains for the dollar following the release of the hawkish minutes from the September 16-17 FOMC meeting. However, strength in the stock market reduced liquidity demand, limiting the extent of the dollar’s gains. Meanwhile, the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, which entered its second week on Monday, remains a bearish factor for the dollar. The longer the shutdown lasts, the greater the risk of adverse effects on the U.S. economy, negatively impacting the dollar.
—
### FOMC Meeting Minutes and Interest Rate Outlook
The minutes from the September 16-17 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting displayed a slightly hawkish tone. While most policymakers indicated it would be appropriate to ease policy further over the remainder of the year, a majority emphasized upside risks to their inflation outlooks. Markets are currently pricing in a 93% probability of a -25 basis points rate cut at the upcoming FOMC meeting on October 28-29.
—
### Eurozone Update: EUR/USD Falls to 6-Week Low
The EUR/USD (^EURUSD) pair extended its losses on Wednesday, declining by -0.29% to a six-week low. Weaker-than-expected economic data from the Eurozone weighed heavily on the euro. Specifically, German industrial production for August posted its largest monthly decline in nearly three and a half years, dropping -4.3% month-over-month versus expectations of -1.0%.
Adding to the euro’s woes, political turmoil in France intensified after Prime Minister Lecornu resigned following President Macron’s appointment of a new cabinet. This development raised uncertainty around the Eurozone’s second-largest economy.
ECB Governing Council Member Muller commented that the Eurozone economy is slowly picking up and inflation is aligned with the ECB’s 2% target. Still, swaps markets currently assign only a 1% chance of a -25 basis points rate cut by the ECB at the October 30 policy meeting.

### USD/JPY Moves Higher Amid Yen Weakness
The USD/JPY (^USDJPY) rose +0.55% on Wednesday as the yen extended its weekly selloff to a 7.75-month low against the dollar. The yen came under pressure due to weak wage growth in Japan — a dovish factor for Bank of Japan (BOJ) policy — with August labor cash earnings rising less than expected (+1.5% year-over-year versus +2.7% anticipated).
Higher U.S. Treasury note yields also contributed to yen weakness. However, losses were somewhat contained after the September Eco Watchers Outlook Survey in Japan improved more than expected, reaching a nine-month high.
Concerns have mounted over the election of Sanae Takaichi as leader of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party, making her the likely next Prime Minister. Her victory has tempered expectations of imminent BOJ policy tightening and raised worries about increased debt issuance given her support for expanded fiscal stimulus.
**Key Data Points:**
– Japan September Eco Watchers Outlook Survey: +1.0 to 48.5 (9-month high), above expectations of 47.8
– Japan August Labor Cash Earnings: +1.5% y/y, below expected +2.7%

### Precious Metals Rally on Safe-Haven Demand
December gold (GCZ25) closed up +66.10 points (+1.65%) on Wednesday, while December silver (SIZ25) rose +1.479 points (+3.11%). Precious metals surged sharply, with December gold hitting a new contract high and nearest-futures gold (V25) reaching an all-time high of $4,049.20 per troy ounce. December silver also posted a contract high, and the nearest-futures silver logged a 14-year peak.
The ongoing U.S. government shutdown is driving safe-haven demand for precious metals. Political turmoil in France, following Prime Minister Lecornu’s resignation, is further boosting this demand. Additionally, metals are benefiting from safe-haven status amid uncertainty tied to U.S. tariffs, geopolitical risks, and global trade tensions.
The election of Sanae Takaichi in Japan, a proponent of easy fiscal and monetary policy, supports demand as a store of value. Central bank buying is also underpinning gold prices. Notably, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) added 40,000 troy ounces of gold to its reserves in September, marking the 11th consecutive month of reserve increases.
Despite the dollar index rallying to a 1.75-month high on Wednesday — typically a negative factor for precious metals — safe-haven support remains strong. President Trump’s attacks on Fed independence have further bolstered gold demand. Weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data has strengthened the outlook for additional Fed rate cuts, which is bullish for precious metals. The swaps market currently indicates a 93% probability of a 25 basis point Fed rate cut at the October 28-29 FOMC meeting.
Meanwhile, fund buying of precious metal ETFs continues to support prices. Gold holdings in ETFs rose to a three-year high on Tuesday, with silver holdings reaching a three-year peak last Wednesday.

Israel Optimistic About Prospects of Reaching a Gaza Deal, Sources Tell ‘Post’
By AMICHAI STEIN, Jerusalem Post Staff
Israel remains optimistic about the prospects of reaching a deal concerning Gaza, sources have indicated to the Jerusalem Post.
An additional source clarified that, as the deal currently stands, Marwan Barghouti and Ahmad Saadat will not be released.
Meanwhile, families of Israelis held hostage by Hamas terrorists in Gaza have shown their solidarity and hope by building a sukkah outside the Prime Minister’s residence in Jerusalem. The sukkah, constructed on October 5, 2025, features photographs of the hostages, symbolizing their ongoing presence in the hearts and minds of their loved ones.

### The Story: Daren Sammy Compares West Indies Cricket Decline to “Cancer”
Former West Indies captain Daren Sammy has drawn a stark and powerful comparison between the decline of his Test side and a “cancer” that has been developing over a long period.
Speaking ahead of the second Test match against India in Delhi, Sammy acknowledged that role models in the shortest formats of the game are readily available for younger players. However, he also emphasized that these players can only work with the resources currently at their disposal.
### Candid Remarks on Deep-Rooted Issues
West Indies suffered a heavy defeat in the first Test of the two-match series against India, losing by an innings and 140 runs. Ahead of the second Test, Sammy did not shy away from addressing the struggles faced by West Indies cricket — particularly in the Test format.
“I know now I’m under the microscope. I’m in the middle, and we’re open to criticism,” Sammy said. But he was quick to point out that the problems the team faces didn’t begin just two years ago; rather, they are deeply rooted in the system.
### The Cancer Analogy: A Metaphor for West Indies Cricket Struggles
Sammy used a powerful metaphor to describe the ongoing challenges: he likened the issues plaguing West Indies cricket to “cancer that’s already in the system.”
He explained, “If you don’t get cancer, you know what happens. Our problems don’t lie on the surface. It’s rooted deep into our system.”
He also highlighted the financial difficulties that have plagued the West Indies cricket board for years. “The difference between the top 3-4 teams in the world versus the bottom four is huge. We’ve been struggling with finances for a long time,” Sammy added.
### Missed Commercial Opportunities and Financial Struggles
Sammy expressed regret over missed commercial opportunities during the era when West Indies cricket was at its peak.
“We’re playing five Test matches, four months in one place, entertaining the world,” he said, reflecting on cricket’s global appeal. Yet, he pointed out that due to mismanagement and other setbacks over the years, the West Indies are now in dire need of financial resources to enable growth and development.
### Woeful Numbers Reflect Current Struggles
Statistics highlight the Windies’ ongoing challenges in the longest format. According to ESPNcricinfo, West Indies have recorded 13 sub-200 totals in their last 15 Test innings. Moreover, in those 15 innings, the team has failed to bat out 90 overs or even a full day.
Notably, since the start of this century, the Windies have won only two Tests against India — with their last victory dating back to 2002. They have lost six of their last seven Tests overall, underscoring the difficult times faced by Caribbean cricket.

Daren Sammy’s candid remarks serve as a grim reminder of the deep-seated issues that require urgent attention if West Indies cricket is to regain its former stature.
