The US and Japan have similar Interest Rates at near 0% so any move higher in US interest rate expectations has a major effect. Overall the USDJPY traded with a low of 82.82 and a high of 83.86 before closing the day around 83.60 in the New York session. UPDATE Q4 Tankan Manufacturing Index at 5 vs. 8 previously.
