Japan's January Merchandise Trade Balance Total falls less than expected by ¥-1,758.3B

Japan's Merchandise Trade Balance Total for January fell by less than expected, printing at ¥-1.75 trillion after an unexpected upswing in Japanese Exports, which rose to a 14-month high of 11.9% YoY versus the forecast decline to 9.5% from the previous period's 9.7% (revised from 9.8%).

Japanese Imports for the same period also declined more than expected, keeping Japan's overall trade balance, coming in at -9.6% versus the forecast -8.4% against the previous period's -6.9% (revised from -6.8%).

Despite beating expectations, Japan's Merchandise Trade Balance Total for the year ended in January beat the forecast ¥-1.92 trillion, but is still well back from the previous period's ¥68.9 billion surplus (revised even higher from ¥62.1 billion), and is the worst print for the figure since last February's plunge to ¥-3.5 trillion.

Market reaction

The USD/JPY is holding steady in early Wednesday churn just below the 150.00 handle as the Asian market session comes online.

About Japan's Merchandise Trade Balance Total

The Merchandise Trade Balance Total released by the Ministry of Finance is a measure of balance amount between import and export. A positive value shows a trade surplus while a negative value shows a trade deficit. Japan is so much dependant on exports that the Japanese economy heavily relies on a trade surplus. Therefore, any variation in the figures influences the domestic economy. If a steady demand in exchange for Japanese exports is seen, that would turn into a positive.

Upozorenje o rizicima

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.
