Tokyo Promises Strong Measures as Yen Falls Below ¥163 Against Dollar

22 Temmuz 2026Financial Times

The Japanese yen has fallen below ¥163 to the dollar, marking a significant decline not seen in nearly four decades. This depreciation has prompted the Japanese government to pledge 'bold' actions to stabilize the currency.
Analysts are closely watching the government's response, as the yen's slide could have broader implications for Japan's economy and trade balance.
The yen's decline is influenced by various factors, including differences in monetary policy between Japan and other major economies. The Bank of Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy contrasts sharply with tightening measures in the U.S.
The continued depreciation of the yen raises concerns about inflation and purchasing power in Japan. As the government prepares to intervene, the effectiveness of such measures will depend on global economic conditions and market sentiment.
