Up
You Go…But How Far?
USDJPY
rally…hmmm?
The
strong rally in USDJPY is primarily a result of first
quarter outflow related to reallocation of international
investments. Outflows are rumored to be exceptionally
high this April, which is supported by the Japanese
government pension fund's announcement of their fresh
FY04 investments in foreign equities and bonds. First
quarter outflow is a seasonal phenomenon, which means
that over the medium to long term, Japanese fundamentals
will return and USDJPY will resume lower.
Move Back Down below 106…hmmm?
Intervention seems to have ended. For the
most part, the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Japan
has stopped supporting the “invisible floor” under
USDJPY. The best way to describe our point here is in
the words of a BoJ source as quoted in the Times of
London a few months ago: “the Japanese recovery no
longer depends on export strength,” and the central bank
can curtail currency
interventions, since they have “served their purpose.”
Japanese Fundamentals Continue to Improve
In the
fourth quarter of last year, the Japanese economy grew
by its fastest pace in over 13 years. Strong capital
spending, increasing exports and progress on the
disposal of bad loans accounted for the majority of the
fourth quarter gains. After 10 years of stagnation, last
year’s rebound in
Japan’s
economy has captured the attention of global investors.
Though technicals may at
this point still not be supportive of USD/YEN below 106,
hence a caution is still needed for trading purposes
