EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Tests nine-day EMA barrier after rebounding above 185.00
EUR/JPY extends its gains for the third successive day, trading around 185.20 during the Asian hours on Monday. The currency cross holds a mild bullish bias as price sits above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), while being capped immediately by the nine-day EMA.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 49.6 is effectively neutral, suggesting range-like conditions as the pair consolidates just above its medium-term trend support. Additionally, the technical analysis of the daily chart suggests the EUR/JPY cross is remained within the ascending channel pattern, signaling a prevailing bullish bias.
The EUR/JPY cross is testing the immediate barrier at the nine-day EMA of 185.22. A break above the short-term average would reinforce the bullish bias and support the currency cross to explore the region around the all-time high of 187.95, recorded on April 17, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 188.60.
On the downside, the primary support lies at the 50-day EMA of 185.12, with further declines targeting the lower boundary of the ascending channel around 184.50. A successful break below the channel would put downward pressure on the EUR/JPY cross to navigate the region around the four-month low of 181.87, recorded on March 16, followed by the six-month low of 180.81, reached on February 12.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners
Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.

Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.
