Yen strengthens as soft US PPI weighs on dollar

USD/JPY eased toward 159.45 in Asian trading as softer US inflation data and intervention concerns pressured the dollar.

USDJPY

The dollar lost ground against the yen in Asian trading on Friday, with USD/JPY easing toward 159.45.

The move followed softer US inflation data, including a tame PPI print, which tempered expectations for Federal Reserve policy and reduced support for the dollar.

Traders also cited concerns over possible currency intervention by Japanese authorities as another factor weighing on the pair.
