$5 Billion to $10 Billion: U.S. Plans Yen Intervention
A recent Reuters photograph taken during a meeting at Camp David has revealed U.S. plans to purchase Japanese yen (JPY:USD) worth $5B-$10B, according to a 'to-do' list by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
The photograph was taken during President Donald Trump's cabinet meeting on Friday and shows the list written in handwriting.
This development suggests that the U.S. is taking steps to intervene in the foreign exchange market, potentially influencing the value of the yen against the US dollar (USD:JPY).
