Foreign exchange market data from Japan's Ministry of Finance for the period from April to June shows that yen was bought on a total of three trading days; in addition to last week's intervention, this may mean that the Japanese authorities have exhausted the 2026 intervention amount permitted under the International Monetary Fund rules. After a joint purchase of yen with the US Treasury Department, the expected schedule for the next six months has been reset. This actually means that Japan will not be able to intervene until early 2027. This is good news for foreign exchange traders who want to re-engage in arbitrage trading. However, some investors will question whether the old rules-based system is still actually binding in the Trump era.
