The Japanese Yen (JPY) attracts buyers for the third straight day on Friday and remains close to over a one-month high touched against its American counterpart earlier this week. Data released earlier today showed that consumer prices in Tokyo – Japan's capital – rose in January.
Moreover, Japanese Industrial Production registered unexpected growth in December and Retail Sales surged past consensus estimates. This keeps alive expectations for further interest rate hikes by the Bank of Japan (BoJ), which, in turn, continues to underpin the JPY.
