The post USD/JPY nears intervention levels as pair breaches 155 – ING appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. USD/JPY continues to climb in a low-volatility, risk-on environment, briefly breaching 155.0. Japan’s Ministry of Finance has issued cautionary signals, hinting at potential intervention, though strategists suggest verbal warnings may persist until US data resumes, leaving the pair poised to test 156-157 in the coming weeks, ING’s FX analyst Francesco Pesole notes. Japan signals FX vigilance amid USD strength “Japanese officials probably hope we are right, as USD/JPY continues to creep higher in the low-volatility, risk-on environment. The pair briefly breached 155.0 yesterday, as Japan’s Ministry of Finance continues to send warning signs. We definitely are entering FX intervention territory, but even if intervening is the plan, there is an argument for the MoF to wait until US data releases resume.” “Remember, in July of last year, the MoF surprisingly intervened after a sharp slowdown in US inflation, seemingly shifting strategy: intervening in a USD/JPY market-induced selloff, rather than in a rally. If our intuition is right, and the MoF sticks to mere verbal intervention for now, markets may keep testing the upside tolerance band at 156-157 in the next couple of weeks.” Source: https://www.fxstreet.com/news/usd-jpy-nears-intervention-levels-as-pair-breaches-155-ing-202511131016The post USD/JPY nears intervention levels as pair breaches 155 – ING appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
