Risk aversion lifts yen and dollar
The global currency market has witnessed a notable increase in the Japanese Yen to its strongest level in a month, driven by investors' pursuit of safe-haven assets amid growing concerns over a potential downturn in stock markets, rising oil prices, and tensions in the Middle East. The US dollar was also affected by disturbances in France and developments in the artificial intelligence sector, leading to a decline in the Euro, British Pound, and Australian Dollar, while Bitcoin's value dropped by 3.20%.
