WHAT HAPPENED WITH JPY?
Diupdate
Hello guys! Here is a quick summary of what happened in the market today, especially in the Japanese one, after the Bank of Japan surprised everyone.
On Tuesday, the Bank of Japan made its first move towards a shift away from ultra-loose monetary policy after weeks of speculation. As part of an adjustment to its yield curve control policy, the BoJ decided to increase the range of its target for the yield on 10-year government bonds from +/- 25 basis points to +/- 50 basis points. Despite this change, the Bank kept its short-term policy rate at -0.1% and maintained its commitment to easing in its statement. In fact, the BoJ plans to increase its purchases of Japanese government bonds in the coming quarter, from 7.3 trillion yen per month to 9 trillion yen.
The Bank of Japan's policy adjustment was more hawkish than financial markets had anticipated, and contributed to the yen's further recovery from a 30-year low reached this October. A stronger yen may provide some relief to the Japanese economy, which has been grappling with the high cost of imports due to the sharp decline in the value of the yen this year.
As the possibility of more hawkish central bank actions and a potential recession in 2023 increased, the value of Asian currencies against the US dollar decreased further and risk appetite remained low. While the US dollar strengthened against most Asian currencies, the strength of the yen, euro, and pound weighed on the dollar index and dollar index futures.
