Yen Drops Against Most Counterparts as Gains in Shares Curb Refuge Demand

The yen fell against most of its major counterparts as gains in Asian stocks reduced demand for Japan’s currency as a refuge.

The yen declined to as weak as 110.48 per euro before trading at 110.28 at 9:41 a.m. in Tokyo from 110.16 in New York yesterday. Japan’s currency was at 76.76 against the dollar from 76.66.
