Comment:
USD/JPY rose 0.3% to 138.59, consolidating below last week’s 24-year high of 139.38, after the Bank of Japan maintained its ultra-easy monetary policy despite raising its inflation forecast and warning of risks to the economic outlook. The Bank of Japan projected inflation would exceed its target this year in fresh forecasts issued on earlier today.
