The USD/JPY pair turns lower for the second straight day following an intraday uptick to mid-161.00s and drops to a more than two-week low during the first half of the European session on Friday.

Commerzbank’s Charlie Lay and Dr. Henry Hao note that weaker US non-farm payrolls and reduced Fed rate hike expectations weighed on the Dollar, supporting the Japanese Yen. USD/JPY fell sharply as markets priced a smaller cumulative hike by year-end and speculated about possible FX intervention.

MUFG’s Michael Wan notes that softer US non-farm payrolls and suspected FX intervention supported the Japanese Yen, pushing USD/JPY sharply lower. He highlights that weaker payrolls reduce the likelihood of a near-term Fed rate hike but do not clarify the broader labour and inflation outlook.

USD/JPY holds its position after experiencing volatility, trading around 161.10 during the Asian hours on Friday. The pair may depreciate as the Japanese Yen (JPY) could strengthen on rising speculation that Japanese officials are preparing another round of currency intervention.

The USD/JPY pair attracts fresh sellers following a modest Asian session uptick to the 161.50 region and turns lower for the second straight day on Friday.

The Yen rebounded from four-decade lows on Thursday, a move that owed nothing to the Bank of Japan (BoJ). A soft June Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) print knocked the Dollar, while fear of a fresh intervention jumped hard enough to push USD/JPY toward its first weekly loss in eight weeks.
