If the Japanese currency strengthens further, it may find target levels at 80.60 against the greenback, 80.50 versus the Canadian dollar, 87.70 against the Swiss franc, 105.70 against the euro and 66.15 against the kiwi.
The yen that slipped to a 4-day low of 130.27 against the pound in the morning bounced back to a 4-week high of 128.58 around 3:30 am ET. The pound-yen pair is presently worth 128.87 with 128.30 seen as the next likely target level.
