The yen fell against the greenback after rising earlier in the session. The yen was weighed by data on the country's GDP, which showed a 0.2% contraction in the third quarter vs -0.1% expected. The annualized reading came in at -0.8%, while economists had expected a more modest 0.2% drop. The GDP declined amid negative trends in China's economy and weak demand from overseas.
