EURJPY rebounds despite political risk in France.
“EU bound to raise interest rates as soaring inflation erodes savings and jeopardizing corporate profits.”
Traders shifted their focus towards euro despite heightened political risk in France after President Emmanuel Macron failed to secure an absolute majority in the parliamentary election. Yesterday, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde reemphasized to raise interest rates by twice this summer to combat rising inflation. For the time being, investors will wait for testimony from Fed Chair Jerome Powell to attain further confirmation.

ZFX Analyst’s Comment
Japanese yen experienced extended weakness since last week after Bank of Japan decided to maintain loose monetary policy. Widening divergence in between BoJ and other major central bank may provide further support for the pair in the mid to long run.
