USD/JPY: Intervention risk caps upside – BBH

BBH’s Elias Haddad highlights that the Dollar is broadly firmer, but intervention warnings from Japanese officials are supporting the Japanese Yen. Japan’s top currency diplomat stresses a “very clear” joint message from Tokyo and Washington on Yen weakness, and BBH expects USD/JPY to trade within a 155.00–160.00 range in the near term as these risks constrain moves.
