On Friday, the USD/JPY pair increased on Friday by 0.48% to 152.10, supported by the resistance of the American dollar in order to make a caution from federal reserve officials. Because the American labor market remains solid, traders are observing the upcoming pay -paying report (NFP), which is to show a 175 -carat profit in January. SzePTU’s respect is suggested by a slightly stronger reading of 199K, signaling the continuous strength of the labor market.
With expectations indicating the unchanged unemployment rate of 4.1% and stabilizing wage growth at 3.8% y / ry, the markets remain careful at all surprises in the data. Considering the latest trends in the unemployment claims and other indicators, there is a potential for growth surprise that can strengthen the cautious Fed position on rate reduction.
Federal reserve decision makers are still repulsive in relation to early rates. Logan from Dallas Fed noticed that even if inflation approaches 2% in the coming months, it would not necessarily justify this inevitable.
