Yen Rises Towards Year's High

Monday, 19 Jul 2010

The Japanese Yen rose toward its strongest level this year against the U.S Dollar as signs the U.S. economy is losing momentum added to speculation that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates at almost zero this year. The Yen also rose against the Dollar as falling U.S. yields continued to weigh on the U.S. currency, with traders targeting stop-loss orders placed under 87.00 Yen.

Japan's currency gained versus all 16 of its major counterparts and rose toward the strongest level this year. The Japanese currency traded at 87.20 per USD from 87.40 yesterday, after climbing to 87.17, approaching this year's high of 86.97 set on July 1.
