Last week, the yen surged over 2% against the dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several factors have contributed to the yen&#8217;s strengthening from the 38-year low of 161.96 against the dollar at the start of the month, including a global stock rout and monetary policy expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Quantitative tightening and potential rate hike under scrutiny<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BOJ has already announced plans for quantitative tightening, with a moderate view suggesting the bank will halve its monthly bond purchases over two years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, questions remain about whether the BOJ will increase rates on Wednesday, potentially marking Japan&#8217;s second hike this year. The central bank has a history of falling short of hawkish market expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You might also be interested to read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/yen-climbs-as-investors-pull-back-from-risky-trades\/\">Yen climbs as investors pull back from risky trades<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The greenback was last 0.12% higher, fetching 154.205 against the yen.

Investors will listen for any hints from Fed Chair Jerome Powell on how soon policymakers might cut rates during his press conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the Fed does not meet in August, Powell could use the Jackson Hole gathering of central bankers in late August to prepare the market for a rate cut, giving policymakers more time to assess economic data.
