Before BoJ Ueda's Speech, GBP / JPY Struggles To Extend Above 163.00

It is difficult for the GBP / JPY pair to prolong its gains above 163.00 during the Asian session. Given that Bank of Japan (BoJ) Governor Nominee Kazuo Ueda is following in the footsteps of former BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, it is expected that the cross will resume its upward trend as investors cease supporting the Japanese Yen.

 

In his speech on Friday, BoJ Ueda stated that the current monetary policy is appropriate to maintain inflationary pressures. Despite reaching a multi-decade high, Japan's Consumer Price Index (CPI) is non-sticky due to the international forces propelling inflation. The accelerating price index in Japan is due to higher petroleum and food import prices, not domestic demand and wages, which should be the primary generators of inflation. The objective of the Japanese government was to develop a strategy for exiting the decade-long monetary policy with a new BoJ chairman. BoJ Ueda's dovish remarks, however, reduced long-term yen support wagers.

 

The term "ecosystem" refers to a group of people who work in the construction industry.

 

In the meantime, the British pound has moved sideways ahead of the anticipated announcement of a Brexit agreement by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and President Ursula von der Leyen of the European Commission. "The Prime Minister wants to ensure that any deal fixes the practical problems on the ground, ensures trade flows freely throughout the entire UK, protects Northern Ireland's place in our Union, and returns sovereignty to the people of Northern Ireland," Sunak's office said in a statement cited by Reuters.
