USDJPY Fundamental Analysis
Bloomberg—Japan has no intention of intentionally lowering the value of the yen, Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato stated in parliament on Friday, dismissing allegations from U.S. President Donald Trump that Tokyo manipulates its currency to benefit exporters.
Kato’s remarks come as a potential meeting with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent looms during the upcoming G20 finance summit and IMF spring sessions in Washington. If the meeting takes place, it would offer a key platform for both countries to discuss currency-related concerns within the broader context of ongoing tariff talks.
Kato emphasized that Japan’s last move in the foreign exchange market was to strengthen the yen, not weaken it—demonstrating a commitment to transparent and fair financial practices. Although he recognized that the U.S. may prioritize currency matters, Kato declined to comment on any specific agenda and confirmed that no date has been confirmed for talks with Bessent.
USDJPY Technical Analysis
FenzoFx—The USD/JPY currency pair resumed its bearish trajectory after the price flipped below the 144.56 mark. However, the downtrend eased after the price reached the 141.70 support level.
The RSI 14 and Stochastic indicators are moving sideways, meaning the market lacks momentum. Despite these signals, the trend outlook remains bearish because the price is below the 50-period simple moving average.
That said, the downtrend will likely extend if bears close and stabilize below the 141.70 level.
The Bullish Scenario
Conversely, the bearish outlook should be invalidated if USD/JPY exceeds the 144.56 resistance. If this scenario unfolds, the currency pair will have the potential to rise toward the 148.20 resistance.
