USD/JPY bias flipped 11 times to neutral on July 22, 2026
The yen continues to slide despite Tokyo vowing to take “bold” action, while hawkish comments from the Bank of Japan have so far failed to arrest the currency’s weakness. A dense week ahead featuring a Federal Reserve decision and ongoing Middle East tensions are adding to market uncertainty for the dollar-yen pair.
