Japanese Yen Strengthens as BoJ Rate Hike Bets Build

USD/JPY slipped toward 159.45 in Asian trading as market expectations increased for another Bank of Japan rate hike.

USDJPY

The Japanese yen gained ground against the US dollar during Asian trading hours on Wednesday, with USD/JPY edging lower to around 159.45.

The move came as market participants priced in a stronger chance of another interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan, supporting demand for the yen.

The pair's decline reflected the shifting rate outlook rather than a broader dollar move, leaving USD/JPY under pressure near the 159.45 level.
