... As a reminder, this FX issue matters for global markets because Japan is a large holder of foreign securities and, as illustrated there in the first quarter, intervention has involved sales of US Treasury bonds in particular. #economy #japan #yen #markets #fx 2 of 2

The yen has tentatively stabilized for now at Β₯160 per US dollar as markets await the authorities' reaction, including the mix of fx intervention, rate hikes, depreciation, and other policy adjustments. (CNBC chart below.) #economy #japan #yen #markets #fx

With so much news breaking this week, it’s perhaps not a surprise this has flown under the radar: The yen has depreciated to an economically and politically sensitive level. #economy #markets #yen #japan #fx #currency

The combination of higher Japanese government bond yields (above 2.10%) and a weak yen (above 150 per US dollar) persists, fueling dynamics that undermine the policy objectives of both the government and the Bank of Japan. #economy #markets #japan #yen

As the initial yen rally (post $50 billion intervention by the Japanese authorities) began to lose steam, the US stepped in with a late Friday assist, the second in the last 24 hours (Bloomberg below). This helped the yen appreciate back. The big question remains: Will this intervention hold? #yen

...Secretary Bessent. Having said that, the similarities end there. Japan’s economic and financial fundamentals are vastly different (stronger) from Argentina’s. (I also suspect Japan doesn’t share Argentina’s enthusiasm for FIFA under its current leadership!) #economy #markets #yen #japan @wsj.com

Good morning. The "what" is clear; the "why" is elusive: The yen gained another 1% today to 154 per US dollar, leaving traders and analysts divided, if not bewildered over what's driving this move. (Bloomberg chart) #economy #markets #yen #fx #lapan #currency

It’s hard to say which is more striking: the Japanese authorities spending Β₯12 trillion ($74 bn) on FX intervention over the last four weeks, or the exchange rate remaining at around Β₯159.2 per dollar (CNBC chart)β€”a level many see as almost guaranteeing further intervention. #economy #japan #fx #yen
