Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/JPY continues to tumble as the euro remains weak against almost all of its trading partners. Yesterday prior to the Fed testimony, the euro climbed but it was artificially inflated after falling in the morning to below the 1.22 price. The euro recovered and ended the day trading at 1.2294. In the Asian session today, the EURUSD is trading at 1.2281.

There is little tier one data on either side of the globe so markets will be more responsive to news flow.

With unclear rhetoric from the MoF, markets are confused over future actions. The JPY remains strong against the USD and most of its trading partners.
