Yen Weakens vs Dollar as Iran Tensions and Rate Differential Offset Intervention Risk

USD/JPY rises above 162.00 as geopolitical tensions and the wide US-Japan rate gap outweigh the threat of Japanese intervention.

USDJPY

The Japanese yen weakened against the US dollar at the start of the new week, building on Friday's late rebound from the 161.30-161.25 area. USD/JPY climbed back above the 162.00 round figure during the Asian session, driven by a combination of supportive factors.

Persistent geopolitical tensions related to Iran have boosted safe-haven demand for the dollar. At the same time, the interest rate differential between the US and Japan continues to weigh on the yen, as the Federal Reserve maintains higher rates while the Bank of Japan keeps its policy ultra-loose.

Market participants remain alert to the risk of Japanese intervention to support the currency, but so far the fundamental headwinds have proven stronger than any verbal or actual intervention efforts.
