  • The greenback now outperforms all but the NOK in G10 FX trade, with the likes of GBP/USD & EUR/USD back into yesterday’s range after a brief show above.
  • JPY is weaker against all G10 peers, with the uptick in core global FI yields also weighing on the yen in recent trade.
  • The technical setup in that pair remains bullish, with initial resistance at the 20-day EMA (156.46) pierced. A clean break and extension there would shift focus to the January 15 high (158.08).
  • BoJ event risk on the horizon for JPY pairs (expect our full preview of that decision in Asia-Pac hours. Most look for a 25bp hike on Friday, with ~24bp of tightening discounted).
