Japan says $550 billion package in trade deal could finance Taiwanese chipmaker in US

By Makiko Yamazaki TOKYO (Reuters) -Japan's $550 billion investment package agreed in this week's U.S. tariff deal could help finance a Taiwanese firm building semiconductor plants in the U.S., Japan's top trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa said on Saturday. Japan agreed to the sweeping U.S.-bound investment initiative, which includes equity, loans and guarantees, in exchange for lower tariffs on its exports to the U.S. However, the structure of the scheme remains unclear. "Japan, the United States, and like-minded countries are working together to build supply chains in sectors critical to economic security," Akazawa told public broadcaster NHK. To that end, he said projects eligible for financing under the package are not limited to U.S. or Japanese firms. "For example, if a Taiwanese chipmaker builds a plant in the U.S. and uses Japanese components or tailors its products to meet Japanese needs, that's fine too," he said, without specifying companies. The U.S. is significantly reliant on Taiwan's TSMC for advanced chip manufacturing, raising economic security concerns due to geographic proximity to China. TSMC announced plans for a $100 billion U.S. investment with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House in March, on top of $65 billion pledged for three plants in the state of Arizona, one of which is up and running. Japan will use state-owned Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) and Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI) for the investments. A recent law revision has enabled JBIC to finance foreign companies deemed critical to Japan's supply chains. Akazawa told NHK that equity investment would account for just about 1-2% of the $550 billion, suggesting that the bulk will come in the form of loans and guarantees. When asked about the White House statement that the U.S. would retain 90% of the profits from the package, he clarified that the figure refers only to returns on equity investment, which would represent a small fraction of the total. While Japan initially hoped to secure half of the returns, a loss from the concession on the profit-sharing would be marginal compared to the roughly 10 trillion yen ($67.72 billion) in tariff costs that could be avoided under the deal, he said. He added that Japan aims to deploy the $550 billion investments during Trump's current term.

NYC Billionaire Charles Cohen being sued over bad $535M loan — how to build real estate wealth without drowning in debt

Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. New York City real estate tycoon Charles Cohen has lived a life most people only dream of — complete with exotic cars, lavish mansions and fancy yachts. Now, some of his prized possessions are under threat as a massive business loan gone bad starts to have very personal consequences. Cohen, 73, is being sued by Fortress Investment Group over a $535 million loan extended in 2022 to his firm, Cohen Realty Enterprises. The collateral included a Manhattan office tower, the Le Meridien Dania Beach hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and four other properties, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing records from New York State's Supreme Court. But that's not all: Cohen personally guaranteed $187.2 million of that loan. His net worth is nearly $2 billion, according to a financial statement filed with the court. His business defaulted last year, and Fortress has since seized much of the collateral. Still, the firm claims those assets fall far short of what Cohen owes, reports The Journal. That shortfall has led Fortress — an investment giant partially owned by Abu Dhabi's Mubadala Capital — to go after Cohen's personal wealth. And that's exactly what it's doing. Fortress is seeking to confiscate Cohen's homes in Provence, France, and Greenwich, Connecticut, reports The Journal, along with his fleet of 25 luxury cars and five yachts — including a 220-foot superyacht that's presently docked at an Italian port under court order. Don't miss Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 5 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) You don't have to be a millionaire to gain access to this $1B private real estate fund. In fact, you can get started with as little as $10 — here's how Following a French court order, debt collectors have already seized hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of Cohen's belongings from his 138-acre estate and vineyard in Provence, according to The Journal. The haul apparently included high-end furniture, valuable artworks and a fine wine collection. 'They keep pecking at us, like a bird would peck at something,' Cohen said of Fortress in a February deposition, per The Journal. 'Enough was never enough.' A blunt reality check Real estate has long been one of the most powerful tools for building wealth — and for good reason. It has the potential to generate steady rental income, appreciate over time and offer valuable tax advantages. But as Cohen's case shows, that success isn't guaranteed — especially when there's large amounts of debt involved. Leverage is a common part of real estate investing, even for everyday investors. With home prices sky-high, most people need to take out a mortgage to buy an income property. And with interest rates elevated, borrowing has become more expensive — assuming you can even save enough for a down payment. The good news? You no longer need to take on traditional debt to get started in real estate. Becoming a real estate mogul — starting with $100 Crowdfunding platforms like Arrived have made it easier than ever for everyday investors to gain exposure to America's real estate market. Backed by world class investors like Jeff Bezos, Arrived allows you to invest in shares of rental homes with as little as $100, all without the hassle of mowing lawns, fixing leaky faucets or handling difficult tenants. The process is simple: browse a curated selection of homes that have been vetted for their appreciation and income potential. Once you find a property you like, select the number of shares you'd like to purchase, and then sit back as you start receiving any positive rental income distributions from your investment.
