That\u2019s the highest level intraday for the currency pair since Oct. 21, 2022, when the dollar traded as high as 151.95 yen, its strongest level since the early 1990s. <\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n<p>150 is widely seen as a critical threshold for the yen, since Japanese authorities have hinted that they could intervene to support the yen if it continued to depreciate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See: <\/strong>Japanese yen sees wild swing amid intervention fears after falling to nearly 1-year low versus dollar<\/p>\n<p>Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told parliament last week that the yen\u2019s rapid depreciation was a problem, and that his government would work with the Bank of Japan to take action if necessary. <\/p>\n<p>Higher Treasury yields have helped drive the U.S. dollar higher. Meanwhile, the BoJ has maintained a tight grip on Japanese government bond yields, even after adjusting its policy to allow bonds to trade more freely late last year. <\/p>\n<p>Some on Wall Street have speculated that the BoJ could abandon, or significantly modify, its policy of controlling bond yields, as well as its policy of keeping short-term yields in negative territory, perhaps as soon as next week\u2019s policy meeting. <\/p>\n<p>The BoJ has largely bucked the trend of central banks raising interest rates over the last two years, which has helped fuel the yen\u2019s weakness, since the Japanese currency offers comparatively paltry returns relative to the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields. Treasury yields traded near their highest levels in 16 years on Wednesday. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a
