A survey released by the Japanese government on Monday, August 31, revealed that a severe labor shortage remains the primary reason Japanese companies are hiring foreign workers. This highlights the Japanese economys reliance on overseas labor, even as Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi seeks to tighten regulations targeting non-Japanese residents. A multi-option survey conducted by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare showed that 68.2% of companies cited alleviating labor shortages as the reason for hiring foreigners. This reason has remained the top choice every year since the survey began in 2023. Approximately 56% of companies stated that they recruit based on the abilities and qualifications of foreign workers; 18% indicated they hoped to promote workplace internationalization. With Japans declining population and aging workforce, companies are increasing their recruitment of foreign workers to fill labor gaps, leading to a significant increase in the number of foreign workers. A report released this month by Teikoku Databank showed that more than half of companies reported a shortage of full-time employees. The survey also revealed that nearly 30% of companies reported an insufficient number of non-regular employees.Japans construction orders fell 13.4% year-on-year in July, compared with 2.3% in the previous month.Japans housing starts rose 8.19% year-on-year in July, below the expected 7.8% and the previous months 18.60%.August 31 - According to data released by Nepals National Disaster Risk Reduction Authority, as of 9:00 a.m. local time on August 31, the death toll from the landslide disaster in Nepal has risen to 903, with 4,247 people still missing.On August 31st, to further deepen the reform of medical insurance payment methods, promote the dynamic adjustment of the disease-based payment grouping scheme, and continuously optimize supporting mechanisms such as special case negotiation, the National Healthcare Security Administration organized two special symposiums on the disease-based payment special case negotiation mechanism on the afternoon of August 25th.

EUR/USD Price Analysis: EUR/USD Is Clinging To The Leading Edge Of The Rising Trendline Above 1.0900

The EUR/USD pair fluctuates erratically in a narrow range near 1.0926 during the Asian session. Following in the footsteps of the directionless US Dollar Index (DXY), the main currency pair is unable to establish a trend.

 

In Asia, S&P500 futures are declining slightly as investors fret over the upcoming quarterly earnings season, indicating a minor decrease in market participants' risk appetite. Following the decline of regional banks in the United States, investors are concerned about any discrepancies in quarterly banking reports.

 

The Euro has entered the wilderness as European Central Bank (ECB) policymakers are divided over the pace of the policy-tightening cycle to be implemented at the May monetary policy meeting. Martins Kazaks, a member of the ECB's monetary policy committee, stated on Monday that the central bank has the option to move by either 25 or 50 basis points (bps) in May. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers. 

 

After failing to sustain above the 161.8% Fibonacci Extension at 1.1057 (positioned from April 4's high of 1.0973 to April 10's low of 1.0837) on a two-hour time frame, EUR/USD experienced a precipitous decline. The primary currency pair has declined below the uptrend line drawn from the low of 1.0714 on March 24.

 

The 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.0962 is operating as a barrier for Euro bulls.

 

In the meantime, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has moved into the pessimistic zone between 20.00 and 40.00, indicating a continuation of the decline.

 

A decisive break below the low of April 12 at 1.0915 would propel the asset toward the lows of April 10 at 1.0837 and April 3 at 1.0758.

 

In contrast, a breach above the psychological resistance level of 1.1000 would propel the asset to a new annual high of 1.1068, followed by the level of round resistance at 1.1100.
