The USD/JPY is trading at 135.51, up 0.25 percent, as Tokyo's stock market starts. In a risk-off climate, bears lurk, and lower US rates encourage yen demand..

 

The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury decreased by 6 basis points in the early Asian trading session, although it is now attempting to stabilize at 2.818%. With the exception of the US dollar, the Japanese yen outperformed the rest of the major currencies overnight, with the USD/JPY rate rising only 20 basis points to 135.85. For the first time in over three weeks, the US 10-year and two-year yields have crossed. This was one of numerous instances this year. According to some economists, an inversion of the yield curve is a sign of an imminent economic crisis. The margin between the two-year and five-year interest rates was likewise negative on Tuesday.

 

Tuesday was a day of risk aversion, with the dollar rising to its highest level in two years and putting pressure on global markets and commodities. There is a high danger of future economic shocks being amplified by volatility in the cost of energy and raw materials, according to the Bank of England, which made the statement at the beginning Asian trade.

 

As a result of the ongoing COVID testing in Shanghai, analysts have expressed concern about the possibility of more lockdowns in China, which might have a ripple effect on other markets.

 

US stock markets reversed course on Tuesday, after a three-day holiday weekend and big gains on Friday, as investors await economic data expected later this week in Nonfarm Payrolls and ahead of today' monetary policy minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee. The Nikkei began the day with a gap, which suggests that the yen will climb.

 

US Nonfarm Payrolls data is likely to show that employment grew robustly in June, albeit at a slower rate than the nearly 400k jobs gained in March through May.

 

There will also be an examination of the Federal Reserve's June meeting minutes. Due to rising CPI inflation and signs of inflation expectations de-anchoring, the Federal Reserve accelerated the pace of rate-tightening. According to analysts at TD Securities, the Fed's more aggressive reaction function is expected to be revealed in the meeting minutes.
