Yen Rebounds from Two-Year Low vs USD as BoJ Hike Bets Counter Weaker CPI

The Japanese yen is recovering from a two-year low against the U.S. dollar, with the USD/JPY pair pulling back from the 161.80 area. Market expectations for a Bank of Japan rate hike are offsetting softer domestic inflation data.

USDJPY

The USD/JPY pair extended its late pullback from the 161.80 region—a fresh high since July 2024—and drifted lower during the Asian session.

Renewed bets on a Bank of Japan rate hike provided support for the yen, countering the impact of Japan's softer-than-expected consumer price index data.

Traders are now monitoring further BoJ guidance and U.S. economic data for directional cues.
