Daily Report: Yen Weakness Continues on BoJ Speculation, BoC WatchedThe Japanese yen remains the weakest currency as recent selloff in the currency pushed USD/JPY through 80 psychological level briefly today. Speculation of additional easing from BoJ, as soon as on it's meeting next week, intensified further. its reported that BoJ officials are already discussing additional measures to boost recovery that include expansion of its asset buying program. Meanwhile, political pressure continues to be on the central bank. Seiji Maehara, the first minister to join a BoJ meeting in nearly a decade, said he'd probably join next week's meeting again. Maehara said today that he hopes to "continue calling on the BOJ to pursue powerful monetary easing to achieve at an early date its 1 percent inflation target". USD/JPY retreats mildly after breaching 80 but that should be relatively shallow. We'd expect broad based weakness in the yen to continue in near term.Full Report Here... |    |
