Yen exchange rate recovers but still under pressure from USD

Huyền Mai |

The Japanese Yen recovered slightly against the US Dollar today but is still under pressure to depreciate.

According to FXStreet, the Japanese Yen (JPY) has recovered slightly against the US Dollar (USD). Today (October 10), one USD is worth 149 Yen.

However, the yen remains under pressure to depreciate. The dollar has maintained its strong momentum, reaching an eight-week high, as traders await U.S. consumer inflation data, making them more cautious about betting on the yen.

Separately, data on Tuesday showed Japan's real wages fell in August after two months of gains, along with a drop in household spending, raising concerns about the strength of personal consumption and the economic recovery.

This, coupled with outspoken statements on monetary policy from Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, has increased uncertainty about a rate hike by the Bank of Japan (BOJ), putting pressure on the Yen.

The recent widespread weakening of the Japanese Yen amid uncertainty over the Bank of Japan's plans to raise interest rates, coupled with the rising wave of the US Dollar, has pushed the USD/JPY pair to the 149.35 zone. This is the highest level since mid-August, showing a strong weakening of the Yen against the USD.

Overall, investors are awaiting the US consumer price index (CPI) report along with the producer price index - which could influence expectations of the Fed's interest rate cut path and impact the USD/JPY pair.

According to Lao Dong, at 6:00 p.m. on October 10, the exchange rate of the Japanese Yen against the US dollar is currently hovering around 148.9-149.55 JPY/USD, a slight decrease compared to yesterday, showing the recovery of the Yen.
