Currency News, Research and Forecasts for Australian Dollar and Japanese Yen
Whenever you are interested in an exchange rate you are actually interested in two currencies due to the fact that the value of a currency must always be quoted in comparison to a second currency.
So it follows that if you are determining the best time to transact, in this case the AUD vs JPY, you should pay attention to both Australian Dollar and Japanese Yen news and forecasts.
Australian Dollar (AUD) - Market news and forecasts
November-26: In the weeks leading up to this report, the Australian dollar was among the best performing global currencies. A broader 2018 view will, though, show a currency that is struggling. The good news is that the Aussie’s prospects for 2019 remain good.
Important for AUD in November was the break of an important technical trendline that demarcated the 2018 downtrend. Between January and late October, the currency lost nearly 14 percent against the US dollar to trade at a 2-1/2-year low of $0.702. It had recovered by the time of this report into the $0.72s. Similar could be said of AUD’s performance against the euro.
Easing trade tensions between the US and China was another big positive for AUD in November.
Inaction on interest rates from the RBA has lended itself to lower AUD exchange rates but this will change next year. The inevitability of higher Australian interest rates will become the narrative in mid-2019, thinks Citibank, and this will drive capital into AUD and force its price up to $0.77. CIBC expressed a similar view in November, albeit with a slightly lower mid-19 forecast of $0.76.
Japanese Yen (JPY) - Market news and forecasts
As December 2018 began, the yen was little changed year-to-date, at levels near 113.6 to the US dollar.
As year-end approached, analysts considered the yen’s future, and appeared to agree that the low-yielding currency would strengthen throughout 2019 and beyond.
The median estimate of economists polled by Bloomberg in December indicated USD/JPY — the benchmark yen exchange rate — falling to 105 by the end of 2019, which marks yen strength of 8 percent from December’s opening rate. Experts at Mizuho, Citibank and Commerzbank saw the yen strengthening even further, to 100 or stronger. USD/JPY hasn’t traded at the symbolic 100 level since August 2016.
Yen strength will be driven by tighter Japanese monetary policy, experts said, and by a slower pace of policy tightening in the US. The US-Japanese interest rate differential will narrow.
At the time of writing, the yen was 5 percent higher on the year against both the euro and Australian dollar, at respective rates of 129 and 83.5.
