随着中东局势紧张，日元贬值正在加剧。由于担心原油价格走高导致日本贸易收支逆差扩大，曾经的“有事时买入日元”的现象已不复存在。市场关注的是俄罗斯入侵乌克兰导致的“2022年型日元贬值”的情形。越来越多观点认为，非常时期买入美元和能源价格的上涨将加速日元的抛售。
“在霍尔木兹海峡被封锁导致油价上涨令人担忧的情况下，没有积极买入日元的氛围”，日本国内银行的外汇经纪人这样解释本周初以后外汇市场的气氛。
3月3日，在伦敦外汇市场，日元对美元的汇率一度贬值至1美元兑157.90日元区间，创出了2月9日以来的最低水平。上周末收于156日元附近。日元对瑞士法郎2日贬值至1瑞士法郎兑约203日元区间的最低水平，对澳元3日也跌至1990年以来的新低。
