US warns Japan against 'competitive devaluation'

The US Treasury on Friday warned Japan against “competitive devaluation” of the yen after the Bank of Japan announced last week a massive bond-buying program to tackle deflation.

The Treasury called on Japan “to refrain from competitive devaluation and targeting its exchange rate for competitive purposes,” in a twice-yearly filing to Congress.
