The USD/JPY pair advances toward the psychological resistance of 150.00 in the late European session on Friday. The asset continues its two-day winning spell as investors turn cautious amid volatility ahead of January's United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data.
The US Dollar Index (DXY) is slightly up from Thursday’s closing price as Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers lean towards holding interest rates restrictive for longer. On Thursday, Boston Federal Reserve Bank President Susan Collins said the central bank needs to be sure about strength in the labor market and progress in inflation declining towards 2% before adopting an expansionary policy stance.
On the labor market front, the US economy is outperforming as weekly jobless claims, released on Thursday, were lower despite high lay-offs in the technology sector. For the week ending February 2, individuals claiming jobless benefits for the first time were at 218K, lower than expectations of 220K and the former release of 228K.
Going forward, the inflation will provide fresh guidance on interest rates. A stubborn inflation data would shift the hopes of a rate cut to June from May, which already shifted further from March. The CME Fedwatch tool shows trades see a 53% chance for a rate cut by 25 basis points (bps), declining in the range of 5.00%-5.25%.
On the Tokyo front, the Japanese Yen is under pressure as investors see the Bank of Japan (BoJ) not going aggressive on rate hikes after exiting from its ultra-dovish interest rate stance. On Thursday, BoJ Deputy Governor Uchida Shinichi said that monetary policy conditions in the Japanese economy are in a deep negative trajectory, which is not expected to get blown up aggressively.

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
