Japanese Yen Gets Boost on Risk Aversion

Yen in currency trading

Japanese yen is getting a boost today, heading higher against its major counterparts as risk aversion sets in. Yen is in demand as a safe haven currency today, in spite of Japan’s struggling economy.

The latest news out of Europe has many concerned about a lingering eurozone recession, and there are questions about the job market in the United States. With these worries weighing on sentiment, yen is showing strength right now.
