Yen Falls from 2-Week Highs
The Yen declined against the Dollar yesterday as reduced risk sentiment had traders aggressively pursuing higher yielding currencies throughout the day. The Japanese currency came off a two-week high against both the Dollar and the EUR. Earlier in the day, traders sold off the Yen in anticipation of better than expected U.S. economic data. Those gains held throughout the day as the numbers beat market estimates. In early morning trading, the USD/JPY was trading at 98.95 while the EUR/JPY was at 130.67.
With little data to come from the Japanese economy this week, we may expect the Yen to continue to trade based on risk sentiment in the market and leading indicators from other economies. Traders are advised to follow the trends of U.S. equity markets as there appears to be a negative correlation with the valuation of the Yen and these markets.
