Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/JPY is trading at 96.95 as the euro was able to muster some strength after the USD collapsed. The euro has surged in early morning trading to over 1.23 against the greenback. This move has helped the euro upwards against its trading partners.

Markets are also worried about stealth intervention from the BoJ to help support the Yen.
