円売り優勢、ドル強気ポジション。2025年2月以来の高水準

The dollar-yen exchange rate is back in the 160-yen range. According to reports, hedge funds, asset managers, and other speculative investors have built up bullish dollar positions to their highest level since February 2025. At the same time, expectations are growing that the Bank of Japan will raise its policy rate to 1.0%. Normally, a rate hike would be expected to strengthen a country’s currency. But this time, markets are asking a different question: even if the BOJ raises rates, will yen selling really stop? Behind this are several overlapping factors: persistent U.S. inflation, fading expectations for Fed rate cuts, tensions in the Middle East, crude oil prices, Japan’s government bond market, expectations for currency intervention, and the risk of a sudden unwind in yen carry trades. In this video, we take a neutral look at what is really driving dollar strength and yen weakness, covering U.S. and Japanese monetary policy, crude oil, foreign exchange reserves, U.S. Treasuries, Japanese government bonds, mortgage rates, and the historical lesson of the yen’s sharp rebound in 1998. The 160-yen level is not just another exchange-rate milestone. It is a stress test for market confidence in both Japanese and U.S. economic policy.
