The Japanese yen was up and down on Wednesday against the USD. The beginning of Wednesday saw the yen making gains against the greenback but as the day moved on the dollar eventually came out on top. Towards the end of the afternoon, the yen was trading at 83.83 against the dollar.
A combination of mixed news from the U.S. as well as continued uncertainty regarding where the yen will move is contributing to the back and forth behavior of the USD/JPY. The U.S. has recently released various reports indicating strength in the economic recovery underway but yesterday’s home sales figures were a disappointment to many. Meanwhile, the yen continues to trade well above the 80.00 mark as investors express their uncertainty as to which way the Japanese economy and, subsequently, the currency will move.
