USD/JPY ticks higher on Tuesday, moving toward the 160.00 mark once again and raising the risk of another intervention by Japanese authorities. At the time of writing, the pair trades around 159.80.
ING’s Francesco Pesole warns that USD/JPY short-dated implied volatility is not reflecting renewed intervention risk as the pair retests 160.0. Markets seem to expect the Bank of Japan’s June meeting to help cap the pair.
BNY’s Bob Savage highlights a strong JGB auction and falling yields as markets price a 76% chance of a Bank of Japan (BoJ) rate hike this month. Despite this, USD/JPY remains near 160 for a fourth day, with Japanese officials issuing repeated intervention warnings.
DBS Group Research’s Philip Wee highlights that USD/JPY is again trading near 160, keeping markets wary of potential Japanese authorities’ intervention and a possible 25 bps rate hike by the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to 1% at its June meeting.
The USD/JPY pair extends its sideways consolidative price move through the first half of the European session on Tuesday and currently trades around the 159.70-159.75 region, or over a one-month top.
The Japanese Yen (JPY) continues to face intense pressure as global energy shocks and geopolitical tensions weigh heavily on Japan's economic outlook.
