On May 19th, Harumi Taguchi, an economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence, stated that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) may raise its policy rate from the current 0.75% to 1.0% in July, with further rate hikes in December and 2027, bringing the policy rate to 1.5%. Taguchi noted that if rising oil prices and a weaker yen exacerbate concerns about the second-round effects of inflation, the BOJ may raise rates further. Taguchi added that given the continued high oil prices driving up demand for the dollar, rising market expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike, and concerns about Japans fiscal expansion, the yen is unlikely to appreciate in the short term.On May 19th, according to Iranian sources, Iranian President Pezechzian, during a meeting with officials from the Ministry of Cooperation, Labor and Social Welfare, stated that economic and social problems should be addressed at their root through structural and sustainable planning.

Price Analysis: EUR/JPY Daily Rising Wedge Targeting 143.00

The EUR/JPY continues to consolidate within an ascending wedge, after ending Tuesday with tiny losses of 0.04% due to a risk-on sentiment. At the start of the Asian trading session, the EUR/JPY exchange rate is 145.48, representing a slight gain of 0.01%.

 

As noted previously, a rising wedge emerged on the EUR/JPY daily chart, with the bulk of daily lows acting as dynamic support after the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). In spite of the fact that the cross continues to move steadily, there has been less price action during the past four days. This would suggest that the EUR/JPY exchange rate is stable or that a breakout is near.

 

If the EUR/JPY reaches 146.00, it could accelerate a rally toward the year-to-date (YTD) highs near 148.40; however, buyers must first overcome crucial resistance levels. The first is the rising wedge top trendline close to 146.50, followed by the 9 November daily high at 147.11. After the psychological 148.00 is reached, the next objective will be 149.00.

 

If the EUR/JPY breaks below the rising wedge, the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) around 144.12 would provide first support. A breach of this level will expose the 143.00 level, followed by the November 11 swing low of 142.54.
