The Federal Reserve is due to begin its two-day meeting today and the expectation is that they will change its asset-buying program. Quantitative easing is expected to continue for quite some time yet. The dollar lost 0.18% against the yen but its losses were limited the Bank of Japan are also implementing further easing measures.
