The USD/JPY currency pair was surging in the aftermath of the US rate hike on Thursday morning. However, at the time of the analysis the pair suddenly plummeted from 145.90 down to the low levels below 142.50 in less than 20 minutes.

The central bank operation has been confirmed by the bank's representative Masato Kanda, who stated "We have taken decisive action in the exchange market."
