FRESH ANALYTICS – Will the JPY be supported?

Last Friday’s risk-on sentiment continued pulling the Japanese currency, the famous safe-haven, to the new lows.

The yen was trading against the USD, the EUR, and, surprisingly, the GBP on the levels of the last November-December. What are the reasons?

At first, it’s not a secret that the positive news on the breakthrough in US-China trade negotiations was warmly welcomed by the market.

It resulted in the demand for risky assets, which weakened the Japanese yen.

Secondly, the dovish comments by the bank of Japan governor Haruhiko Kuroda on the further easing of the bank’s monetary policy affected the currency negatively.

Despite these factors, this week may provide some opportunities for the JPY to recover.

We need to wait for the updates on the trade truce, the release of Chinese trade balance on Friday and the comments by the FOMC members.

Any uncertainties or weak Chinese data will push the JPY higher.
