In the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 15th, the beginning of the week, the yen exchange rate moved slightly.

The yen exchange rate at 5:00 pm was 133.51 to 53 sen to the dollar, a 26 sen depreciation to the dollar compared to last weekend.



On the other hand, against the euro, 1 euro was 136.62 to 66 sen, an increase of 58 sen compared to last weekend.



The euro was 1 euro = 1.0233 to 35 dollars against the dollar.



A market insider said, ``Because there is a growing view that inflation will subside in the United States, concerns over the acceleration of monetary tightening have eased. There was also a movement to buy the yen and sell the dollar, but domestic companies were buying the dollars needed for imports, so the range of price movements was limited due to the mix of buying and selling."
