Defending the YenUS Dollar vs Japanese YenBLUEBERRY:USDJPYBlueberryJapan has moved from talking about the weak yen to actively defending it over the past week. The key event was a coordinated U.S.-Japan FX intervention around July 30 to August 3. Key word being coordinated. Japanese authorities bought yen in size, while the U.S. Treasury also participated. This isnt a hostile defense. This is planned and well managed. We've likely seen Yen lows, with more gradual appreciation now likely in coming months.
