The Japanese yen declined versus the US dollar and the euro in Asian trade Thursday, as Tokyo stocks regained, which prodded selling of the safe-haven currency.

Against the greenback, the yen traded at ¥117.74 from Wednesday’s ¥117.27. The currency was at ¥138.59 per euro, previously ¥138.25.

The Nikkei index added 1.9% following it shed more than 400 points in the last two sessions.

The dollar-yen pair, keeping with the stock market’s steady advances, “is corresponding steps,” said Kyosue Suzuki, Head of the FX and Money Market Sales Separtment at Societe Generale.
