US Treasury tells banks further yen intervention is possible

The U.S. Treasury Department has informed financial institutions to prepare for potential further intervention in currency markets following Japan's recent action to support the yen by purchasing it and selling dollars. This follows Japan's decision to intervene in the foreign-exchange markets on Thursday, which aimed to stabilize the yen against the dollar. The move by Japanese authorities reflects ongoing efforts to manage exchange rates, potentially influenced by broader economic considerations. The U.S. warning suggests that further coordinated actions between central banks could be considered if market conditions warrant.
