The Japanese Yen rose against the Dollar and other major currencies after a series of declines by the Japanese currency during the last period, due to the large amount of investors buying the Japanese Yen. In light of this new tendency, Yen has been seen to return back to the scene to be a safe haven currency.

The current crisis in China's financial system is resulted from the decline in supply of liquidity, without direct interference from the Chinese Central Bank, which led to higher lending rates between commercial banks.
