USD/JPY snaps losing streak, rises over 0.20% amid profit-taking before weekend. RSI hints at bottoming, but buyers must clear 144.00 for bullish follow-through. Downside risks remain if pair fails to hold above key 143.00 support. The USD/JPY pair snapped three straight days of losses and climbed over 0.20% on Thursday late during the North American session.
