JPYINR
Technical Outlook:
JPYINR prices gave gap down opening
and drifted lower, and given close near
days low.

take prices higher while failure to

minute timeframe showing weakness.
Fundamental News:
The yen has been losing value at a more rapid pace against the dollar since the Bank of Japan launched its latest round of quantitative easing a month ago, and was trading at more than Y119 to the greenback this morning
Monetary easing, the first arrow of Abenomics, has always been the most efficacious in Tokyo’s quiver. But its purpose is only partly about the central bank’s oft-voiced commitment to driving inflation up and ending a deflationary mindset, a mindset that politicians insist is responsible for weak consumption and weak capital expenditure. That first arrow is in fact all about driving down the yen and stimulating exports. Everything else is more needles than arrows
