Analysis and Recommendations:
The EUR/JPY continues to slide trading at the close of the Asian session at 96.25 declining another 0.26.
As traders avoid anything associated with the eurozone and the JPY reaps the benefit of the best safe harbor in this risk aversion market, the JPY continues to show momenutm against all of its trading partners.
Even though earlier this week the Japanese Finance Ministry threatened to intervene to support the currency. The JPY is strong against the USD but the USD continues to power over the EUR creating an unusual market dynamic.
