USDJPY | Perspective for the new week | Follow-upIn Japan, the Bank of Japan's Governor Kazuo Ueda highlighted that underlying inflation remains slightly below the 2% target during a Federal Reserve research symposium. This observation reaffirms the central bank's commitment to maintaining the current monetary policy approach. Despite core consumer inflation in Japan hitting 3.1% in July, companies passing on higher costs have sustained inflation above the 2% target for the 16th consecutive month.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's recent speech at the Jackson Hole symposium solidified the Fed's intention to uphold a 'higher for longer' outlook on interest rates and bond yields. This stance is a boon for dollar enthusiasts, especially considering the contrasting economic scenarios. The U.S. economy is exhibiting robust performance, with the latest Atlanta Fed tracking estimate indicating a near-6% annualized growth rate.
The widening short-dated yield spreads, which often influence exchange rates, favor the dollar over the Yen in recent weeks. This shift enhances the potential for the dollar to ascend into a higher trading range relative to the Yen.
As we navigate the upcoming week, it's crucial to consider these significant market drivers.
