The Japanese yen has fallen below 163 against the US dollar, reaching its weakest level since 1986 due to a wide interest-rate gap between Japan and the US, high oil prices, and concerns over Japan's fiscal health. Hedge funds have increased bearish bets on the yen, nearing levels not seen since 2008. The Bank of Japan may raise rates more frequently but is expected to keep rates steady on July 31. The yen's weakness supports global carry trades, affecting risk assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies, but a sudden yen strengthening could trigger market sell-offs. Investors will watch the Bank of Japan's upcoming decisions closely for potential market impacts.
