Japanese Yen: Range-bound with mild upside against US Dollar – UOB

United Overseas Bank's (UOB) Quek Ser Leang reported that the US dollar (USD) to Japanese yen (JPY) exchange rate, USD/JPY, traded around 159.00, rebounding from 158.00. He forecasts the pair to trade within a range of 158.50 to 159.35 over the next 1-3 weeks, although he maintains a slightly negative outlook for the next 3-6 weeks, anticipating a dip within a range of 156.60 to 159.60.

USD experienced a sharp decline to 158.03, but this decline seemed overdone and may now be contained within a range of 157.70 to 158.70. The subsequent rebound to 159.05 appears overextended, and USD is more likely to remain within the anticipated range.
