Former Haruhiko Kuroda, ex-chief of the Bank of Japan, said the USD/JPY rate is unlikely to weaken past 160 per dollar. Kuroda identified an equilibrium rate between 120 and 130 based on economic fundamentals. His comments signal a floor for the currency as authorities defend current levels through market intervention.
