Forecasts for USD to JPY
90-DAY▲HIGH3d
Based on recent exchange rate forecasts and market updates, FX analysts predict that the USD to JPY exchange rate is likely to see some fluctuations in the coming months. Economists expect the US dollar's strength, which has persisted over the past year, to eventually reverse in 2023 as the Federal Reserve concludes its cycle of interest rate hikes. This change in monetary policy could potentially weaken the USD against the JPY.
Goldman Sachs forecasts a decline in the JPY, with the USDJPY pair potentially reaching 155, the lowest level in decades. The three key factors that will impact this exchange rate are the widening of the US-Japan interest-rate gap, changes in global oil prices, and the JPY's safe-haven status.
Reviewing recent price data, the USD to JPY exchange rate currently stands at 149.2, which is 3.3% above its 3-month average of 144.5. The rate has displayed significant volatility, fluctuating within a range of 8.3% from 138.1 to 149.6.
In terms of oil prices, OIL to USD is currently at 95.38, which is 11.7% higher than its 3-month average of 85.37. Oil prices have shown extreme volatility, ranging by 33.7% from 72.26 to 96.61.
Considering these factors, individuals and businesses should closely monitor the USD to JPY exchange rate, as well as any developments in the US-Japan interest-rate gap, oil prices, and market sentiment toward the JPY as a safe-haven currency.
