USD/JPY to decline below 140 on a 6-12M horizon – Danske Bank
|Economists at Danske Bank expect the USD/JPY pair to nosedive over the coming months.
Turnaround in US yields to weigh on USD/JPY
We forecast USD/JPY to decline below 140 on a 6-12M horizon. This is primarily because we believe that long US yields have reached their peak.
We expect yield differentials to be a tailwind for the Japanese Yen over the coming year. In addition, historical data suggests that a global environment characterized by declining growth and inflation tends to favour the JPY.
