USD/JPY extends gains for the second successive session, trading around 154.00 during the European hours.
USD/JPY gained ground due to an upward correction in the Greenback The US Dollar could face challenges due to rekindled hopes for rate cuts by the Fed in 2024. The safe-haven Japan ese Yen depreciates amid the prevailing risk appetite. The upward correction in the US Dollar provides support for the US Dollar, consequently, underpinning the USD/JPY pair. However, the Greenback could face resistance due to investors’ optimism following the softer US labor data on Friday.
The weaker US Treasury yields contribute to limiting the advance of the US Dollar. 2-year and 10-year yields on US Treasury bonds stand at 4.80% and 4.45%, respectively, by the press time. In Japan, Masato Kanda, Japan's top currency diplomat, hinted at potential measures to address excessive market fluctuations earlier on Tuesday. Last week, the Japanese Yen experienced appreciation amid speculation of government intervention by Japanese authorities.
