The Japanese Yen is still considered one of the top safe havens for global investors. Over the past two weeks, the Yen, along with the Euro and the Swiss Franc, has recorded a sharp increase of 5% to 8% against the USD. This development reflects the market's confidence in the stability of the Yen, especially when basic wages at many Japanese companies are increasing, creating a foundation for the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to continue its policy of raising interest rates.
Meanwhile, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) is under great pressure to cut interest rates due to concerns about the US economic slowdown, partly due to new tax policies. The interest rate gap between the US and Japan is therefore gradually narrowing, making the "carry trade" investment strategy less attractive. If this trend continues, the Yen is likely to continue to maintain its recovery momentum in the medium term.
It is expected that at the G20 meeting starting from April 22, the exchange rate issue may be included in the agenda between the Japanese and US Finance Ministers. Currently, the exchange rate of 140 JPY to 1 USD is considered an important threshold. If the US increases pressure to force Japan to adjust, it is possible that the exchange rate may fall to 130 JPY/USD.
Despite some pressures, Japan is still highly regarded for its large economy, political stability and highly liquid financial markets, which have helped the yen retain its appeal as a safe haven asset for international investors.
