shuo, Japan Revises GDP Growth Rate Up; Investors Stunned; Yen Rises Against Dollar

See this article:

Yen Rises Against Dollar After Japan Raises Jan-March GDP Growth to 2.0%

bloomberg.com

Key Excerpt from Article:

The dollar's weakness can fuel U.S. inflation by making
imports more expensive and also prompt global investors to sell
U.S. securities as the value of their equity holdings will fall
as the dollar slides.


IMO, the Fed may raise interest rates to (1) curb inflation and (2) support the falling dollar.
