Amidst the Thanksgiving holiday, with the U.S. equity market closed, market observers anticipate subdued trading in the Dollar Index (DXY) and gold prices throughout the festive season. Concurrently, the trajectory of oil prices remains uncertain, as the rescheduled OPEC+ meeting casts a shadow on decisions related to production cuts, introducing an element of ambiguity in the oil market. Meanwhile, Japan’s latest core Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading exceeded the previous figure but fell short of the forecasted number. Despite this, the Japanese Yen exhibits a relatively flat performance against its currency counterparts, as the uptick in Japan’s inflation data seems to have had minimal impact on the currency’s movements.

The USD/JPY pair is once more hovering near a pivotal liquidity zone. Despite Japan’s core Consumer Price Index (CPI) falling short of market expectations, its elevation compared to the preceding reading indicates a sustainable level of inflation in Japan. This has fostered market speculation that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) might consider normalising its monetary policy in the coming year. Surprisingly, the release of this crucial economic data did not significantly impact the strength of the Yen, as minimal movement was observed in the currency following the unveiling of the Core CPI figures.

Support level: 149.29, 144.39
