It is expected that the dollar will continue to be in a state where it is difficult to lower interest rates between Japan and the US, but views have emerged that the Bank of Japan will begin discussions aimed at financial normalization from the next meeting, and it seems unlikely that risk-loving dollar buying/yen sales will expand further. If the depreciation of the yen and the appreciation of the dollar progresses beyond 1 dollar = 156 yen, there is a possibility that market intervention by the Japanese government and the Bank of Japan will be carried out is also likely to be one reason to suppress the rise in the dollar. There are also voices that if the April consumer price index or April retail sales fall below market expectations according to the US economic indicators scheduled to be announced this week, observations of interest rate cuts within the year will intensify, and the upper price of the dollar will become slightly heavier. Note, Japan's gross domestic product (GDP) for the January-March fiscal year announced on 5/16 is expected to grow negatively, and if it falls below market expectations, the maintenance of the Japan-US interest rate difference is once again recognized, and there is still a possibility that the dollar and yen will show solid movements.
