JAPAN: Akazawa Notes Flexible Policy Response To Tariffs; Nikkei Up ~6%

Apr-08 05:57

Latest headlines from Japan's Economic Revitalisation Minister Akazawa (per BBG):

  •  "*JAPAN'S AKAZAWA: ANALYZING STATS TO ASSESS TARIFF IMPACT"
  • "*AKAZAWA: TO CONTINUE FLEXIBLE POLICY RESPONSE TO DEVELOPMENTS"

The Nikkei has rallied ~6% during today's Asia-Pac session, linked to hopes of tariff negotiation between PM Ishiba and the Trump administration after a call yesterday. A reminder that US Tsy secretary Bessent noted after the call that he would "expect that Japan is going to get priority". Tariff-related headline flow, including progress around negotiations, will be a key focus in today's EU/US session too, with the data calendar reasonably light.

USDJPY maintains a bearish tone following last week’s sharp sell-off and the latest recovery is - for now - considered corrective. A resumption of the downtrend and a break of Friday’s 144.56 low would signal scope for an extension towards 144.13, a Fibonacci retracement point. Initial firm resistance to watch is 149.00, the 20-day EMA. Resistance at the 50-day EMA, is at 150.33.
