This increase comes after the US and Japanese governments confirmed they carried out a joint intervention late last week to support the Japanese currency. According to The Guardian, the yen's value had not been this high since early May.\n\nThe joint operation was described as rare by both The Guardian and Guardian Business.\n\nThe yen's rise to ¥155 to the US dollar was confirmed by both outlets.",
