# Yen Weakens Despite Verbal Warning — TradingView News

> The yen weakened toward 158 per dollar on Monday, ending a three-day winning streak despite verbal warnings from Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama. The BOJ kept its rate at 1.25% last week but signalled underlying inflation had reached its 2% target, leaving a possible December hike in view. Safe-haven demand for the yen also eased as a tech stock selloff began to fade.

## Why it matters

A firmer dollar and weaker yen raise the cost of dollar-priced feed imports for Japan and can pressure US grain and feed prices. The yen's direction is likely to hinge on the BOJ's December decision and Japanese wage data.
