BOJ’s Kuroda says.

  1. QE has pushed up demand
  2. revealed supply side constraints that had been hidden
  3. improving conditions in wages and labor market becoming more clear
  4. tight labor market will make it easier for wages to rise
  5. tackling labor shortages will be key issue from now on
  6. not worried about state of US economy
  7. expects US economic growth to speed up

Yen strengthens and breaks below 101.00.

{quote} I will bet you a buck that's a fake break out.

not sure, all I know is that my long at EU saves the day and euro right now with yen are the best indicators of the dollar weakness. if indices continue to fall today I don't see much chance for UJ to survive. I'm long term UJ bull but I have to be realist when I see the charts. will watch the US10y yield also, if it falls bellow 2.5% we may see UJ < 100 .

Nobody can accuse the JPY of being predictable.

Trading this thing the last couple of months has been 'entertaining', to say the least.

oh man, it can go much much lower, Geopoliticals risks in the world are driving this pair + positive data from Japan.
If USA Stock market goes in a correction 96 is still a very easy target.

If you lose a trade, it is not always just your trade to blame - IMO. It is sometimes the condition of the market.

So, it is therefore the decision to enter any given market that matters, as your trade does.

In other words, you may want to refrain from these market conditions because they are very unfriendly at the moment. (IMO)

She is going to say something like this,

  1. retail shows very weak recovery
  2. house shows very weak recovery

Along with noticeable growth in

  1. Job
  2. Manufacturing

Mixed news makes no further rate decision, 101.00 level probably will continue to hold for the time being.

When did Yellen revise the forward guidance and took out the 6.5% job target? what was the support since?

If the growth isn't strong enough to obtain a solid and clear rate decision target, i don't see why 101.00 wouldn't hold for another month. It has been hold for months, didn't it?
Speaking of Yen, Jap's monetary policy is QE and weak yen, that would be another reason why UJ shouldn't be tanking.
