Yen Near 40-Year Lows; Dollar Holds Steady
The U.S. dollar steadied in Asian trading as markets awaited clues on interest rates from the Federal Reserve's upcoming minutes. The Japanese yen hovered near 40-year lows in the upper-161 range against the dollar despite solid domestic wage and household spending data, keeping Tokyo on high alert for currency intervention.
