Japanese Yen (JPY) is weak, down 0.5% vs. the US Dollar (USD) and underperforming all the G10 currencies along with its haven peer Swiss Franc (CHF).
US/Japan talks proceeding well
"The bulk of the yen’s losses appear to have coincided with the release of trade data for March, which showed better than expected balances but a notable (and worrisome) disappointment in growth of both exports and imports."
"Trade negotiations remain the primary focus for the yen at the moment, however, and this week’s talks in Washington are said to have been constructive. Negotiators reportedly did not discuss currency, and are planning to meet later this month."
