I've been noticing that the Japanese yen has been performing weakly in the foreign exchange market recently. I'm curious to know the reasons behind this trend. Why is the yen losing its value compared to other currencies?

One such policy is open-ended bond buying, which aims to cap yields and stabilize the bond market.
