Yen's Decline Signals Japan's Financial Strain
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
The Japanese yen is plummeting, reaching 157.20 per U.S. dollar, a significant shift for a major currency. This decline could signal a risk-on market environment, historically linked to carry trades where traders borrow low-interest yen to invest in higher-yielding assets. However, Japans debt issues and rising bond yields are challenging this trend, making the yen less stable and potentially less reliable as a safe-haven currency. Some analysts suggest monitoring the Swiss franc instead for broader market risk indicators.
