USD/JPY Price Analysis: Creeps higher as buyers target 157.00

  • USD/JPY rises, trading at 156.86, nearing the key psychological resistance at 157.00.
  • U.S. economic data showing rapid business growth since 2022 bolsters the pair.

  • Supports identified at Tenkan-Sen (156.05), Senkou Span A (155.61), and Kijun-Sen (155.18).

The USD/JPY registered gains for the second consecutive trading day but were marginal. The pair trades at 156.86, up by 0.03%, as economic indicators in the United States showed that business activity remains resilient, growing at the fastest pace since 2022.

The USD/JPY uptrend is persisting, but it is encountering strong resistance at the psychological 157.00 after clearing the May 14 high of 156.76.
