Historically, yen weakness has been linked to risk-on sentiment. However, this narrative now appears challenged against the backdrop of Japan’s mounting fiscal strains.

What to know:

Yen weakness is historically linked to risk-on sentiment, but Japan’s fiscal issues may limit the appeal of yen as risk-on funding currency and safe haven.
The Swiss franc is emerging as a more attractive haven. BTC traders may be better off tracking CHF pairs for broad risk-on/risk-off cues.
