# Bank of Japan intervention sends USD lower across Asia | Convera

> The US dollar fell across Asia after the Bank of Japan intervened in FX markets, producing the biggest one-day USD/JPY loss in two years. The AUD and NZD gained about 1.0% and 1.4% respectively, and USD/CNH broke below 6.75 for the first time in three years. Brent rebounded to about $89 on renewed Middle East tensions.
