The Yen depreciated against both the Greenback and the Euro on Tuesday following a minor reduction in geopolitical risk aversion, which raised the equity value across Asia. The 18-nation currency grew 0.1% to 137.25 Yen, while the Dollar gained the same 0.1% to 101.48 Yen. The Asian markets could not entirely escape geopolitical concerns, keeping the Greenback and the common currency in a narrow range against the Yen.
