US Dollar Aims to Reverse Course Versus the Yen
USD/JPY Faces Ongoing Volatility
The tug-of-war between the US Dollar and Japanese Yen continues, with both currencies experiencing frequent shifts in momentum. Market participants appear to be anticipating the upcoming core PCE inflation data later this week, which could serve as a catalyst for the next significant move. Recent trading activity suggests that downward pressure on the pair is beginning to ease. Notably, the candlestick patterns from Monday and Tuesday indicate a potential slowdown in selling intensity.
Currently, short positions against the US Dollar have surged to levels not witnessed in over fourteen years, hinting that bearish sentiment may have reached an extreme. It’s also important to consider the ongoing influence of the Bank of Japan, which remains a key factor in the currency’s direction.

Only a few days separated Jensen Huang’s strong support from the board last Sunday and his late-night resignation on Wednesday. Multiple reports of the Wednesday night Nvidia board meeting were co-authored by Washington-based journalists—who do not typically cover Nvidia—fueling rumors of "White House pressure and information leaks." Huang’s unique value lies in leveraging his personal reputation to secure the supply chain and drive the implementation of technological roadmaps, making him difficult to replace.
