Yen Under Pressure Ahead of Fed, BoJ Meetings
The USD/JPY breakdown faces a major test ahead of the upcoming Fed and BoJ meetings. The Japanese Yen's short-term outlook is uncertain, with market participants waiting for key economic indicators and central bank decisions.
In related news, the US Treasury plans to buy back up to $6 billion in longer-dated debt on September 10th as part of a liquidity operation.
The GBP/USD currency pair has seen a significant surge recently, with bulls mounting a successful fightback against bears and breaking out of a descending price channel. However, the true test of trend will come later this week with high-impact inflation prints and the FOMC rate decision.
