日元兑美元汇率升至155的水平,创三个月新高 [1]。这一升幅是美国和日本政府协调买入日元干预的结果 [1]。日本财务省周一确认了两国的联合行动 [1],美国财政部长贝森特表示愿意继续参与此类联合干预 [1]。
此前日元因日本借贷成本较低而大幅贬值,一度跌至164兑美元,创40年低位 [1]。美国财政部长贝森特的备忘录显示了购买50至100亿美元日元的计划 [1]。特朗普就干预行动表示:"他们有疲弱的日元,他们想要一些帮助。我们总是在那里支持日本。" [1]
上周日元上升近4% [1]。不过,牛津经济学咨询公司认为此次干预可能不足以扭转日元贬值的长期趋势 [1]。
The Japanese yen surged to ¥155 against the US dollar, marking its strongest level in three months, following coordinated currency support from Washington and Tokyo [1]. Japan's Ministry of Finance confirmed on Monday that both nations had undertaken a synchronized intervention to purchase yen, reversing months of weakness that had driven the currency to a 40-year low of ¥164 [1]. The joint action propelled the yen upward by nearly 4 percent over the previous week [1].
US Treasury Secretary Bessent signaled Washington's commitment to continuing such collaborative efforts [1]. President Trump remarked on the intervention, stating: "They have a weak yen, they want some help. We're always there to support Japan" [1]. According to a Bessent memo, the United States planned to purchase between $5 billion and $10 billion worth of yen as part of the coordinated strategy [1]. However, analysts at Oxford Economics cautioned that this intervention may prove insufficient to reverse the yen's longer-term depreciation trend [1].
