The yen has fallen due to the rise in US long-term interest rates against the backdrop of concerns over inflation in the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 6th.
In addition, Japanese government bonds have been sold and long-term interest rates have risen to the level for the first time in four months.
In the foreign exchange market, the yen exchange rate as of 5 pm was 68 yen from 111.67 yen to 68 yen, which is 58 yen weaker and the dollar stronger than on the 5th.
With respect to the euro, the yen depreciated by 22 yen compared to the 5th, and the euro appreciated by 1 euro = 129.5 to 9 yen.

In the bond market, sales orders for government bonds increased, and the yield on 10-year government bonds, which is a representative indicator of long-term interest rates, temporarily rose to 0.08%.

Market officials said, "The view that inflation will continue mainly in Europe and the United States due to the rise in crude oil prices has spread, and long-term interest rates in the United States have risen. In addition, interest rates have risen in the domestic bond market in the form of being hung up by the United States. "
