REUTERS/Florence Lo/Illustration/File PhotoTOKYO - Japan's government confirmed on Tuesday that it did not intervene in the currency market to prop up the yen in the past month, data from the Ministry of Finance showed.
Earlier this month, the Japanese currency had rebounded sharply by around 3 yen within minutes of softening beyond 150 to the dollar, a level seen by investors as a possible trigger for intervention.
