In recent market developments, the Japanese Yen (JPY) is exhibiting bullish momentum, bolstered by the Bank of Japan's (BoJ) recent decision to raise interest rates by 25 basis points to 0.5%, marking the highest level since 2008. Governor Ueda emphasized the importance of avoiding excessively low rates to prevent exacerbating inflationary pressures.
Conversely, the Euro (EUR) faces bearish trends as the European Central Bank (ECB) has lowered interest rates and removed the 'sufficiently restrictive' language from its communications, suggesting possible further cuts by 2025. Downgrades in economic forecasts have indicated a deceleration in economic momentum, placing additional pressure on the Euro.
