Yen falls to historic lows amid rising US yields
The Japanese currency (the Yen) is now stabilizing near its lowest level in approximately 36 years, having reached 163.24 per dollar. The pressure continues due to rising oil prices and US Treasury yields, along with mounting concerns over Japan’s potential intervention in the foreign exchange market to support the currency. This situation occurs amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and increased demand for safe-haven assets, which strengthen the US dollar, accompanied by rising US bond yields and inflation risks. Sources estimate that Japan may intervene again in the currency market if these pressures persist, although such intervention might not be permanent unless the Bank of Japan raises interest rates significantly or the Federal Reserve returns to a policy of lowering rates.
