Yen weakens on less hawkish BoJ as intervention risks limit losses: Nov 3, 2026
The yen has weakened against a recovering dollar, with less hawkish Bank of Japan signals and still-negative Japanese real rates cited as pressure, while warnings about intervention have helped limit losses. At the same time, expectations for BoJ tightening, including a possible December rate hike, have at times put USD/JPY under pressure.
