In the Tokyo foreign exchange market on the 28th, the rise in long-term interest rates in the United States raised awareness of the widening interest rate differential between Japan and the United States, and the yen fell by more than 1 yen.
As of 5:00 p.m., the yen exchange rate was 133.91 yen to 133.93 yen against the US dollar, depreciating by 1.4 yen from the 27th.
Against the euro, the exchange rate was 142.54 yen to 142.58 yen, a 1.10 yen depreciation against the euro compared to the 27th.
The euro was 1 euro = 1.0644 to 46 dollars against the dollar.
A market insider said, ``With the spread of the view that monetary tightening in Europe will be prolonged, long-term interest rates in the United States have risen, and there has been a growing movement to sell the yen and buy the dollar. I announced the main opinions at the meeting, but the impact on the market was limited, as I could not find a clear direction for the future of monetary policy."
