The euro also attained 140.38 yen early on Monday morning to extend its 7-year high, which it reached last week. Several Factors Contributes to the Yen SlumpAccording to Barclays analysts, the continued slump of the yen is attributed to several factors. The factors include an increase in overseas yields, the strengthening of the dollar, and an increase in oil cost, all bringing about a shift of balance in Japan’s trade.The measure of the dollar against the six other major currencies – the dollar index – halts and 14-days downward run and rose by 0.47% to reach 102.06.
