The yen soared by the most in more than two years against the dollar after authorities stepped in once again to try and prop up the nation’s sagging currency ahead of the Bank of Japan’s policy decision https://t.co/HCYPkB7QUL
No surprise from the #BOJ - they will probably try the FX intervention route a few times before they become more aggressive with the policy rate. The million dollar question is of course when this break will happen...
This must have been a coordinated intervention in #USDJPY - after the FED and BOE, but before the #BOJ rate decision. The BOJ thus affords to not hike rates and not be too hawkish tomorrow.
