Singapore, July 22 (QNA) – The yen was pinned near an almost four-decade low on Wednesday as rising oil prices and US Treasury yields hoisted the dollar and left traders on edge about possible Japanese intervention.
On Tuesday, in New York trade, the yen hit 163.24 per dollar, its weakest since late 1986, and it sat at 163.21 early in the Asia session.
The euro was last at $1.1401, while the Australian dollar clung to the 70 cent level and the New Zealand dollar sat on support just above its 200-day moving average of $0.5825.
Sterling is also testing support, and fell through its 200-day moving average to $1.3385. (QNA)
