Comment:
The Japanese yen bucked the trend, rising 0.7% on expectations that the government will intervene further in foreign exchange markets to support the currency. Tokyo spent a record $42.8 billion in October to lift the yen from a 32-year low. The U.S. dollar weakened in early European trade Tuesday as traders weighed the likelihood that the Federal Reserve signals a less aggressive interest rate tightening path at the end of its latest policy meeting on Wednesday.
