Outlook remains bearish for USD/JPY

"Comments from BoJ Dep. Gov. Uchida were hawkish, confirming the recent shift in the central bank’s messaging as it prepares markets for a near-term rate hike. Gov. Ueda is scheduled to speak after Thursday’s NA close, at 9:05pm ET and is likely to reinforce the BoJ’s tightening bias. Yield spreads have narrowed to fresh multi-year lows in the aftermath of Wednesday’s ADP, offering the yen critical fundamental support."

"For USD/JPY, we see little in terms of support between between the mid/lower-146 area and the late May low around 142.00. We remain bearish given the considerable fundamental pressure on USD/JPY."
