Analysis
Trades near 161–162 in Q3 2026, close to 40-year highs, as the BoJ hiked rates to 1.00% but the Fed-BoJ differential still heavily favours the dollar. Japan has intervened repeatedly, reportedly spending over ¥10 trillion in Q1–Q2 2026, without lasting effect. A Reuters report that Japan would stop signalling intervention plans in advance triggered a sharp short-term yen bounce. BoJ board members target a neutral rate of around 2%, suggesting further hikes ahead.
