USD has further upside scope but USD/JPY likely to lag – MUFG
|The US Dollar recorded another week of gains. Economists at MUFG Bank are maintaining their view of further USD strength over the short term.
USD bullish bias remains intact
We see limited scope for a dovish pivot by Fed Chair Powell at Jackson Hole and the Dollar and yields will remain supported for now.
With USD/JPY now in the danger zone we expect increased rhetoric from Tokyo that could mean USD/JPY lags.
