Japan chief cabinet secretary Matsuno with comments trying to support the falling yen - verbal intervention

I posted earlier today to be on the lookout for this sort of jawboning on the currency:

Matsuno:

  • no comment on every day-to-day forex moves
  • important for currencies to move stably reflecting economic fundamentals
  • sharp fx fluctuations not desirable
  • watching fx moves with high sense of urgency
  • volatility is rising in recent forex market
