Has anyone saw nikkei and how the liquidity from JAPAN continue to spill over GOLD, SILVER and US equities. As long as, the large fiscal budget deficits remains and MOF/BOJ continues to inject free money in the system, Yen continue to dump, risk across the risk curve continue to bid. With market expecting 2 cut this year, the CPI data today, is expected to come out above expectation (around 2.95%) but lower than the last figure (3.1%). As for the 2.7% figure, if we look at its components, its empty. Pure manipulation.

Have you see the budget deficit of Japan for 2025?? And you are talking whether they have money or not. Japan is 1st foregin investors of US treasuries. If they were to intervene, they simply need to dump these treasuries to buy YEN.

The yen weakened past 158 per dollar, hitting its lowest level in a year after reports that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi intends to dissolve parliament and call a snap election. Markets view the move as increasing the likelihood of further expansionary fiscal policy, raising concerns over debt issuance and long term fiscal discipline.

Political uncertainty has added to existing pressure on the currency, with investors demanding a higher risk premium despite expectations of gradual Bank of Japan tightening.

Technically, resistance stands near 158.90, while support is firm at 157.50.
R1: 158.90 | S1: 157.50
R2: 159.40 | S2: 156.80
R3: 160.00 | S3: 154.70

With all the headlines today from japan, why is yen weakening so much? It's just crazy. And yet no intervention yet. What are these fools waiting for? Looks like Takaichi is the Asian Liz Truss that will not last long.
