USDJPY - Testing New Highs
The $USDJPY continues its ascent, now trading around 161.67. This is getting into territory where BoJ intervention becomes a real concern. For those tracking macro, what's the general sentiment on how much more room it has to run before we see some official pushback? Could it hit 165?

I'm with you on the intervention concern. 165 definitely feels like a line in the sand, but BoJ's past actions have been a bit unpredictable. It's more about the speed of the move than the absolute level sometimes.
Honestly, I think 165 is still on the table. The economic divergence is just too wide right now. Intervention might slow it, but without a fundamental shift, the pressure will keep building.
