crossing 108 here would make gold take off
Or is it "if gold takes off, USD will drop below 108"?

Hard to know which asset leads, sometimes currencies sometimes gold, but the relationship is true.
Solid fundamental reasons for the correlation.
Gold and JY are both considered to be risk-off assets.

Gold is always risk off, JY, for now, is risk off.

Yup! Other major currencies are all making big moves at here. It is not just Yen now.

Yen-Gold price is about 5% from its ATH. We shall see.
