USDJPY is currently trending upward, driven by several key factors:
Interest Rate Differential: The Federal Reserve’s higher interest rates make the USD more appealing to investors, especially as the Bank of Japan (BoJ) maintains near-zero rates. This rate difference is a fundamental reason for the yen’s weakness against the dollar.
Strong U.S. Economy: Robust economic data from the U.S., particularly in employment and growth, bolsters the dollar. In contrast, Japan’s slower growth adds further momentum to USDJPY’s upward movement.
Safe-Haven Demand: Geopolitical tensions have led investors to favor the USD over the yen as a safe-haven asset, pushing USDJPY higher.
These factors collectively support the bullish trend in USDJPY.
