USD/JPY is quiet – too quiet?

USD/JPY has dripped lower from highs above 153.00 during US time.

Not a lot lower, but I’m sure Japanese authorities will welcome any relief from the pounding JPY has taken, no matter how small.

The dip for the US dollar was attributed to the Beige book:

Bank of Japan Governor Ueda spoke during US time:
