Analysis
NHK's morning business segment "Ohayo Biz" asks a wallet-relevant question: will the yen's slide turn? It dovetails with our lead coverage—a U.S. Treasury remark loosening the weak-yen narrative and a hiking BOJ—as markets reassess the premise of long-run yen weakness. For readers who exchange currency, travel to Japan, or hold yen assets, it is a reminder not to treat "the yen only falls" as iron law; the direction is being rethought. Averaging into conversions and watching the BOJ and the U.S.-Japan yield gap beats a one-way bet.
