What moves the JPY/USD rate
The Japanese yen is one of the world's most-traded currencies and a traditional safe-haven. The Bank of Japan long ran an ultra-loose policy, so the yen reacts strongly to the interest-rate gap with the US; it is quoted in whole yen, with no decimal places. The other way round, $1 USD buys about ¥161 JPY today.
