EUR/JPY: Yen a tad firmer post-BOJ
The EUR/JPY pair now advances +0.16% to 121.27, having failed to take-out 121.50 barrier. The spot stalled its recovery from a dip below 121 handle and now heads back towards the last, as the yen recovered ground somewhat, in a delayed reaction to the BOJ’s upward revision to its economic outlook. Meanwhile, the central bank made no changes to its monetary policy settings today.
On the EUR-side of the equation, an upside consolidation phase on the EUR/USD above 1.09 handle, offers limited impetus to the cross. Focus now remains on the BOJ Governor Kuroda’s press conference and the ECB monetary policy decision for next moves.
