USD/JPY trims losses; focus is back to 156.00

USD/JPY now bounces off the area of multi-month lows and appears headed toward the 156.00 region ahead of the opening bell in Asia. The sharp pullback in spot comes in response to the sudden strengthening of the Japanese Yen, reflecting growing conviction among investors that the BoJ could deliver another interest rate hike as early as its September 18 policy meeting.

AUD/USD looks constructive above 0.7200

AUD/USD adds to Wednesday’s advance, reaching fresh four-month highs north of 0.7200 the figure late on Thursday. The pair’s solid performance follows the sharp sell-off in the US Dollar while market participants gear up for the release of US NFP on Friday.

Gold struggles to extend the bounce past $4,500

Gold adds to Wednesday’s gains and reclaims the area near the key $4,500 mark per troy ounce on Thursday. The strong decline in the US Dollar coupled with further weakness in US Treasury yields across the board also bolsters the move higher in the precious metal.

Bitcoin and Gold Outlook: BTC and XAU recover as US ISM Services PMI edges higher in August
Bitcoin (BTC) strongly rises to trade above the pivotal $80,000 level on Thursday. The Crypto King is rallying alongside broader cryptocurrency prices following the release of the United States (US) Services PMI. Gold (XAU/USD) is similarly bullish, trading at $4,500 at the time of writing. The metal is up over 2% on the day, signaling the return of bulls as market sentiment improves.

The Bank of Canada (BoC) held at 2.25% on Wednesday for a seventh straight meeting and rewrote the one paragraph that still argues against a hike. In July, the BoC’s statement called the labour market soft and pinned the unemployment rate inside a 6.5%-7% range it had held since the end of 2024. July's Labour Force Survey (LFS) then printed 6.4%.
Diesel’s record $100 warning: The oil shock hiding in plain sight
