Mitsubishi UFJ: US inflation data exceeds expectations, yen under pressure as the dollar strengthens

According to Jinshi reports, Mitsubishi UFJ analyst Michael Wan stated that after the U.S. inflation data exceeded expectations, the yen became the most pressured currency in the process of the dollar strengthening again. The USD/JPY exchange rate fell to around 157.88, approaching the high set on May 6.
