28 September 2021, USD/JPY
USDJPY trading plan:
Two-year Treasury yields surged to 18-month highs. Benchmark 10-year yields rose to 1.51%, their highest since June and held just below that at 1.50%. Growing inflationary pressures are also keeping investors nervous, with oil at three-year highs and Fed chair Jerome Powell flagging that price pressure as a result of reopening bottlenecks might be stickier than first thought. Monday data showing a surge in U.S. firms’ capital goods orders last month could also tilt Fed policymakers in favour of lifting rates sooner rather than later. This is a positive signal for the US currency!
Investment idea: buy 110.92 and take profit 111.40.
