USD/JPY approached, but didn’t get to, 156.50 during Tokyo morning trade. The climb was slow and steady. It’s the rapid moves Japanese authorities are more concerned about. Nevertheless, we did get some jawboning from Japan’s finance minister Suzuki. His comments were of the usual variety, with nothing too threatening. As such they had little impact.
From Japan also today were PPI data. This came in as expected for the m/m rise but slightly higher than expected for the y/y.
News and data flow otherwise was light and barely impactful.
Across major FX the US dollar is up a few tics. CAD, NZD and AUD are notably lower.
Oil is down small. Gold rallied a few dollars.
