USD/JPY continued to power through 161 this morning. This is the highest level since 1986, FX strategist at OCBC Christopher Wong notes.

JPY intervention seems inevitable

“There are expectations that Japanese authorities could soon intervene. While the level of Japanese Yen (JPY) is one factor to consider, officials do focus on the pace of depreciation as the intent of intervention is to curb excessive volatility.”

“As such, the path of least resistance for USD/JPY may still be to the upside, for now. Pair was last at 160.65. Bullish momentum on daily chart intact while RSI in in overbought conditions. Next resistance at 161.20 (138.2% fibo projection of 2023 low to 2023), 164 levels. Support at 157.70 (21 DMA), 156.60 (50 DMA).”

Microsoft Stock Price Forecast: Over 20% Slump in First Half of 2026, Will It Keep Falling in the Second Half?

In the second half of the year, if the Federal Reserve initiates actual rate cuts before year-end, and Microsoft improves its internal metrics—such as maintaining Azure's revenue growth rate above 38% and achieving a higher-than-expected corporate conversion rate for Copilot—it will help its stock price break through the upper resistance of its trading range and potentially challenge its historical high of $550. However, if Microsoft’s AI monetization stalls significantly, particularly in the event of a Federal Reserve rate hike, the company may fail to hold its key line of defense and head toward the next critical support level at $200.
