PT Solid Gold Berjangka | Yen Rises on Speculation of BOJ Policy Tweak; Dollar Ebbs
Solid Gold Berjangka | The provided information is a snapshot of the foreign exchange market and economic news as of the date mentioned in the text (Tuesday). Here are some key points from the text:
- Japanese Yen (JPY): The yen was near a two-week high against the US dollar, supported by a report suggesting that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) might make adjustments to a key bond yield policy tool as part of its monetary decision.
- US Dollar (USD): The US dollar had a relatively stable month and was underpinned by expectations of another interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve due to the resilient US economy. However, it had lost some steam after a significant gain in September.
- Euro (EUR): The euro was set to reverse two consecutive months of losses with a 0.4% gain for October, trading at approximately $1.0611. Some economic data from Germany and the eurozone indicated changes in inflation and economic growth.
- Australian Dollar (AUD): The Australian dollar lost value against both the yen and the US dollar and was headed for a monthly loss of more than 1%.
- Israeli Ground Offensive: The US dollar edged lower due to an increase in risk appetite, attributed to Israel’s ground offensive in Gaza being less extensive than previously feared.
- Dollar Index: The dollar index, which measures the US dollar’s value against a basket of other currencies, was at 106.20.
- Sterling (GBP): The British pound fell slightly and was set to lose more than 0.3% for the month. This was ahead of an upcoming interest rate decision by the Bank of England, where expectations were for the central bank to maintain its current interest rate.
- Euro Zone Inflation Data: Data on euro zone inflation was expected to be released later on the same Tuesday.
