Let's explore the USDJPY market today with Selena!

Currently, the UJ continues to shine as it consistently maintains its upward momentum, reaching record highs over the past few months. The currency pair is currently trading at 148.33 and remains in an upward trend, continuously receiving support. Particularly, the intervention of the Japanese government in the foreign exchange market to support the domestic currency, along with a lower risk level, will somewhat support the further increase of the Japanese Yen (JPY).
