How to use Yen in a sentence?

1. Masahiro Ichikawa:

   Upbeat U.S. stocks and the yen's weakening are continuing to push the Nikkei higher, the Bank of England may have gone against expectations by standing pat on monetary policy, but it did leave the door open for a rate cut in August and spared the markets from confusion.

2. Nicholas Smith:

   The yen strengthened simply because of panic, but there is plenty of data that tells us the world is not ending, once the markets recover their composure, the yen will drop back into broadly the same kind of 120-125 range that it's been sitting in for so long.

3. Mitsuo Imaizumi:

   By contrast, the Bank of Japan is nowhere near a policy exit, and it's taking steps that weaken the yen.

4. Yujiro Goto:

   Clearly risk sentiment is not good and oil prices are declining this week and ...feeding and driving the dollar lower against the yen.

5. Raffi Boyadijian:

   The strongest explanation (for the yen's decline) is a widespread selling by Japanese asset managers amid growing fears about the health of Japan's economy.
