The US Dollar has resumed its upside trend and is testing mid-term highs at 153.90.
The uncertain political and monetary scenario in Japan is hammering the Yen.
The broader bias is positive but a bearish divergence warns of a potential correction.
The Dollar has resumed its broader bullish trend during Tuesday’s European session and is testing resistance right below 154.00 with all eyes on the US JOLTS Job Openings data.
The pair draws support from the image of a solid US economy, with all the other main economies slowing down. This endorses the idea that Fed easing will be only gradual, and keeps US Treasury yields and the USD buoyed.
In Japan, the uncertain political and monetary scenario after Sunday’s elections is weighing on the Yen. The Bank of Japan meets this week and is widely expected to keep interest rates on hold until the political context is clarified.
In the calendar today US Consumer confidence is expected to have improved in October, while the JOLTS Job Openings are seen declining moderately yet at levels consistent with a healthy labour market.
