USD/JPY | US Dollar to Japanese Yen Trading Analysis

  • Foreign exchange rates are determined by a variety of factors;
  • In recent years, the yen, dollar, and euro have shown stability;
  • It is due to the course of monetary policy of the Bank of Japan, the Fed, and the ECB to achieve inflation within 2%;
  • It is difficult to explain the yen's rapid rise in 2011 by the monetary base gap of Japan and other economies alone;
  • The yen as a safe-haven currency tends to rise in moments of market turbulence; good thing that's not the case now;
  • The current rise in Treasury yields is a reflection of optimism about economic recovery, but the COVID-19 situation remains the biggest risk factor for the outlook;
  • The Central Bank is keeping a close eye on the forex situation as it affects the economy and prices.
