For the Japanese Yen (JPY), Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki said in a statement today that he will closely monitor the exchange rate movement and take the necessary measures regarding the exchange rate if necessary. This shows us that volatility will continue for a while. It is observed that the parity is increasing due to the appreciation of the dollar.
