Yen price rise 10:21 on January 27 due to concerns about new type pneumonia

In the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 27th, the yen price has risen compared to last weekend. With the spread of the new coronavirus infection in China, there is a move to buy yen, which is considered a relatively safe asset, due to concerns about the economic impact.

Market officials said, "The spread of the new coronavirus, especially in Wuhan, Hubei Province, is raising concerns that the economy will be affected in the future. We are watching the situation to see if we can prevent it to some extent. "
