That makes the Japanese currency less attractive to international investors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The Bank of Japan last raised interest rates in June, as it increased its main rate to 1% &#8211; the highest level since September 1995. In comparison, the US Federal Reserve&#8217;s benchmark rate is in a range of 3.50% to 3.75%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Japan also faces a decades-long slide in its working-age population, low productivity and a heavy reliance on energy imports that are priced in US dollars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">On Monday, Japan&#8217;s finance ministry said Friday&#8217;s intervention with the US Treasury Department &#8220;countered excessive volatility and disorderly movements in the Japanese yen in recent months&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The &#8220;coordinated foreign exchange actions countered disorderly yen movements,&#8221; Bessent said in a social media post.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;We strongly support Japan&#8217;s decisive market and monetary steps to correct the substantial undervaluation of the yen,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;They have a weakening yen, and they wanted a little bit of help. And we&#8217;re always there for Japan,&#8221; US President Donald Trump told reporters on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- \u603b\u5bb9\u5668\uff1a\u6700\u5927\u5bbd908px Grid\u7d27\u51d1\u5e03\u5c40 -->\r\n<div style=\"display: grid;
