The dollar stays close to 150 yen ahead of this week's data-rich central bank meeting

The Bank of Japan is expected to make a policy decision later this week, along with other significant central bank meetings and a plethora of global economic data releases. As a result, traders will be watching the dollar closely on Monday. The yen will be placed near 150.

Beginning on Monday, the Bank of Japan will begin a two-day meeting to discuss monetary policy. This week will also see announcements about interest rate changes from the Bank of England and the U.S. Federal Reserve.

The BOJ is under further pressure to alter its bond yield control policy due to the recent spike in global interest rates. There is growing speculation that the dovish central bank may raise its current yield cap during this week's meeting.
