          STORY: Yen briefly drops past 160 level vs USD in volatile trading SHOOTING TIME: Archives DATELINE: April 30, 2024 LENGTH: 00:01:30 LOCATION: Tokyo CATEGORY: ECONOMY SHOTLIST: 1. various of street view in Tokyo STORYLINE: The Japanese yen briefly dropped to a new 34-year low in the 160 level against the U.S. dollar on foreign exchange markets on Monday morning. It marked the first time since April 1990 that the U.S. dollar has topped the 160 yen line. Monday is a national holiday in Japan, but trading remained very volatile as the Japanese currency began reversing its trajectory in the afternoon, strengthening to the 155 level. Some market participants suspected that Japanese authorities may have stepped into the currency market to stem the yen's dive. A senior Finance Ministry official declined to comment on the yen's sharp rise, Kyodo News reported on Monday. The Japanese currency also fell to around 171 against the euro at one stage, its lowest level since euro was introduced in 1999. Xinhua News

The Bank of Japan (BOJ) decided to guide short-term interest rates in a range of zero and 0.1 percent, a month after it ended the negative interest rate policy in its first rate hike in 17 years. The announcement weakened the country's currency against the U.S. dollar to the lowest level since May 1990, raising the risk of forex intervention by Japanese authorities. The BOJ, which also maintained its policy regarding government bond buying, said the country's core inflation, which excludes volatile

              File photo dated March 18, 2005 shows Michelin logo in Marseille, France on March 18, 2005. After realizing that the minimum wage in its home country left some workers at breaking point, French tire-maker Michelin has taken matters into its own hands to give employees a hefty pay raise. Michelin is rolling out its own living wage to its 132,000 employees, the company said in a press release shared with Fortune and first reported by French publication Le Figaro. The 134-year-old group, which makes heavy-duty tires for construction and freight-handling companies, has set living wages for employees based on their location to correlate with living costs. The calculation for the living wage was also made based on what employees needed to provide for their family’s “essential needs.” Photo by Gerald Holubowicz/ABACAPRESS.COM
