Forex: AUDJPY Monthly Trend
The price of AUDJPY could continue to trade higher in line with its monthly forex trend. Today the market was shocked by the announcement from the Bank of Japan that Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will break tradition, and pick an outsider to Japan’s political establishment in economist, Kazuo Ueda.
If selected as expected it would be the first time that an academic was appointed as central bank chief since post-war. Ueda was previously involved with the central bank and was known to adopt the same ultra loose policy Japan has become known for. This could see the Japanese Yen (JPY) weaken further.
In Australia the inflation rate continues to rise, the RBA have recently voiced their concerns. Governor Lowe met with a group of bankers recently and was said to be considering higher rates, more in line with the Federal Reserves at 4.5-4.75%. This could see the Australian Dollar continue to strengthen in the short term against the JPY.
