Government Lowers GDP Forecasts

Monday, 26 Dec 2011

The Japanese government lowered its current year GDP forecasts to -0.1% from +0.5%. For 2012 the estimates are more positive but the forecast was also lowered to +2.2%, down from 2.7-.2.9%. Japan will be one of the only major financial markets open today but liquidity is expected to be thin nonetheless.

Currently the USD/JPY has been pressing its trend line from the June 2007 high which comes in this week at 78.30. A close above here could find resistance at the post intervention high of 79.50.
