Yen rocks amid some Fluctuations



The Yen which is fluctuating from many days from slump to bump and vice versa has now gained support as the G7 Meeting is in front. The European officials are bit worried about the Yen’s weakness. Although it recovered in past three days amidst increasing carry trade appetite, but still its going to the major issue to be talked about in the G7 meeting. Before someone could discuss about yen’s weakness and its causes, the Japanese officials Hiroshi Watanbe, Japan’s Vice-Finance Minister is ready with the report which states what chances had led the Japanese currency to become weak and how did it influence the Japan’s market.

But not to forget that amid a terrible increase in carry trades in Japan, the Yen has gained against the dollar and the new news is it also gained against the Euro.

Yesterday, the yen rose to 0.1% against the U.S dollar and 0.2% against the Euro. Yesterday, the Japanese Currency’s flux reached to a four-month high indicating the investors to reduce record bets on the Yen’s downward trend. There is lot of possibility of investors buying back the yen once the G-7 meeting comes to an end.

In my opinion, the Yen is going to be stronger ahead in view of the G7 meeting.
