Japanese Yen Down Amid Cautious Boj And U.S. Tariff Risks

The Japanese yen reversed most of its Tuesday gains against the dollar as concerns about the direction of monetary policy could continue to affect sentiment. The BoJ's cautious stance on tightening monetary policy could limit support for the yen. As a result, the yen could continue to face downside risks, unless a more aggressive move by the BoJ materializes. In this regard, the market could remain focused on inflation and broader economic data to gauge the probability of the BoJ moving forward with interest rate hikes.

Meanwhile, U.S. tariff policies are further impacting the yen's trajectory. The threat of higher tariffs on Japanese automobiles poses risks to Japan's export-driven economy, which could weigh on the yen's value. Proposals to stimulate domestic investment via expanded tax-free investment programs may help mitigate the yen's depreciation, but without significant shifts in both domestic monetary policy and global trade conditions, the yen's near-term outlook could remain weak.
