In the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 9th, the yen exchange rate has risen, and the dollar is trading at a level just sandwiching 105 yen.

Market officials said, "The US Fed is aware of the prolonged monetary easing by the Federal Reserve Board, and there is a pause in the rise in long-term interest rates in the US, so the movement to sell dollars and buy yen is predominant. There are also moves to sell the dollar, which has been rising recently, in an attempt to secure immediate profits. "
