Will USD/JPY continue to fall ahead of Fed & BoJ policy meetings?
The desk is cautiously optimistic about the potential for USD/JPY to continue its downward trajectory as expectations for a Bank of Japan (BoJ) rate hike gain momentum. Per the full note from MUFG EMEA, analysts Lee Hardman and Abdul-Ahad Lockhart highlight that the recent decline in USD/JPY is largely driven by heightened speculation surrounding BoJ policy adjustments. With the Fed's stance remaining relatively stable, the focus shifts to how the BoJ's actions may reshape the currency pair's dynamics in the near term.
