Japanese Yen (JPY) made a strong recovery against the US dollar today, testing the 160 level early in the day and reaching its highest point since October 1986. After peaking at 160, the JPY pulled back to the 155 level against the US dollar. This sudden shift in the currency market followed the Bank of Japan‘s (BOJ) decision to maintain interest rates, contrary to general market expectations.

The sharp recovery of the JPY, along with reports of Japanese banks aggressively selling the US dollar, is viewed as a potential intervention by the Japanese government. In its latest monetary policy statement, the BOJ confirmed its commitment to bond purchases to sustain healthy economic growth, while also revising its inflation forecasts upwards. Investors had been anticipating an intervention by Japanese officials due to the JPY reaching its lowest level in 34 years and falling over 10% against the US dollar this year.

According to Reuters, Japan’s top foreign exchange diplomat Masato Kanda declined to comment on market speculation regarding Japan’s intervention in the forex market. Meanwhile, global capital market expert The Kobeissi Letter emphasized the significance of a 2.5% fluctuation in one of the world’s major currencies within minutes, highlighting its potential to impact the global market outlook. The timing of this event shortly after the BOJ’s decision to keep interest rates steady also increased its significance. 
The weakening of the US dollar prompted a positive response in the stock markets, with the US Dollar Index (DXY) falling to 105.46 and US Treasury yields declining. Futures for major US stock indices, including Dow Jones, S&amp;P 500, and Nasdaq, showed signs of recovery. Similarly, Asian markets trended upwards as investors largely ignored the latest inflation report, focusing instead on the upcoming monetary policy decision by the Federal Reserve (Fed) on May 1st.

The cryptocurrency market welcomed the decline in the DXY, potentially boosting positive sentiment for a market recovery. Particularly, the US Treasury Department’s announcement this week that it will provide up to 1.4 trillion dollars in liquidity for the second quarter of 2024 was well-received by those holding risky assets. However, the cryptocurrency market continues to be turbulent with liquidation news ahead of the Fed’s monetary policy decision, and ongoing liquidations of long positions are hindering market recovery.
