A correlation can come and go. At times you may find that the 2 are positively correlated. Meaning if 1 goes up so does the other BUT correlations can change over time and become inversely correlated. So if the Nikkei would be going up the USD/JPY would be going Down and gaining strength as well |

Japan Nikkei-225 is a stock market index for the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). A reasonable decline in the yen usually lifts stocks of export-oriented companies, which tends to boost the overall stock index. The Nikkei-yen relationship is sometimes reversed, wherein a strong open market in the Nikkei tends to boost the yen (weighs on USD/JPY) as investors’ funds flow into yen-denominated stocks. |

Japan Nikkei -225 represents the stock market index of Japan. When this market is strong Japense Yen becomes strong and vice versa. But it need not always be correlated with USD/JPY. Other facors also might be influenced. In general stron Nikkei market brings down USD/JPY and vice versa. |

Correlation can't be plainly stated because it can change due to changes in economic conditions, interest rates, government policies and market sentiment. |
