BNY’s Geoff Yu highlights that the Japanese Yen (JPY) entered the latest Bank of Japan (BoJ) decision and suspected intervention with weak flow momentum and lighter positioning, even as investors remained net long JPY and net short USD/JPY.

The Japanese Yen (JPY) posts moderate losses against the US Dollar (USD) on Friday, with the USD/JPY trading just above 160.00 at the time of writing, after whipsawing within a rough 240-pip range between 158.60 and 161.00 earlier on the day.

Brown Brothers Harriman’s (BBH) Elias Haddad notes that the Dollar stabilized after a sharp sell-off linked to suspected USD/JPY intervention, but argues the broader USD rally since May has likely ended, with US Dollar Index (DXY) expected to move back into a 96.00–100.00 range.

TD Securities’ Alex Loo notes that despite Governor Ueda’s hawkish tone, the Japanese Yen reaction was muted and the BoJ kept its policy rate at 1%.

MUFG’s Derek Halpenny and Abdul-Ahad Lockhart note that the Japanese Yen surged as USD/JPY dropped from 163.00 to 158.00, in a move they attribute to probable Ministry of Finance intervention during New York trading.

The US Dollar (USD) gives back some of its early gains against the Japanese Yen (JPY), but is still 0.5% higher at around 160.30 during the European trading session on Friday.
