Hello dear traders! Join Darius to learn about the market at the beginning of the new week!

USDJPY, which opened higher at the beginning of the week, is currently trading at 149.78 USD in early Asian trading on Monday. This level is considered an 11-month high after bouncing off the low of 148.52 following the release of the Bank of Japan (BoJ) Summary of Opinions. Meanwhile, the US Dollar Index (DXY) holds above 106.00 amid renewed demand.

The pair was supported by a fresh rise in US Treasury yields and dovish BoJ comments. However, the risk of Japan's foreign exchange intervention is increasing.

On the other hand, the Japanese Yen could strengthen thanks to potential intervention by the Bank of Japan (BoJ). Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki reiterated on Thursday that he would not rule out any steps to respond if there were any excessive exchange rate movements. Therefore, it is considered a move higher for this pair.
