USDJPY lower again on month-end sales

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 01:58 AM PDT

I’m hearing that the yen buying, particularly USDJPY, is due to month-end flows

That generally means the trend stays in place for most of the day with a lot of it done at the 15.00 GMT fixing

We’ll see what happens given we have US GDP before that

USDJPY currently 97.68 after 97.58 lows  EURJPY 129.78

GBPJPY looking very ugly at 148.55 on the buy yen/sell pound double whammy. Call me a coward but I wouldn’t recommend catching this falling knife just yet.

USD/CHF finally breaks strong support at 0.9265/70 and hits a low of  0.9254

EUR/CHF within touching distance of 1.2300 with a low at 1.2307

EUR/GBP powering on above 0.8700 to 0.8737. Apart from month end flows there is said to be strength from some MA talk between UK’s Vodaphone and Germany’s Kabel said to be worth  around €7.6bn
