Many economists expect the Bank of Japan, after systematically refusing to adjust its extremely loose monetary policy will be the only country to raise interest rates in 2024.
If the Bank of Japan decides to raise interest rates, at the same time, global tightening momentum wanes, betting on a stronger yen is a sure thing.
But with inflation dropping, the Manufacturing PMI below 50, consumer spending and real wages declining, the window for tighter monetary policy is closing rapidly, and hence a long yen position.

<ul><li>FX Market Update—The USD is trading a little firmer to start the week but the DXY remains effectively range bound, with the broader trend in the USD against the majors still holding within the wide intraday range set by the markets in response to the stronger than expected NFP data on January 5th.</li><li>The MLK Day federal holiday today will keep things relatively quiet, and ranges are unlikely to extend significantly in the absence of US market participants.</li><li>But the somewhat firmer USD tone is appropriate in my opinion, given the recent strength in US economic data and comments from Federal Reserve officials who have suggested market pricing for a March rate cut (19bps at writing) is optimistic.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to our weekly positioning overview.
We’ve been working on some new ways to look at positioning data across asset classes, and we’ll share some of the inaugural charts in today’s piece and will extend them, week by week.
Markets have more or less traded sideways since the start of the year, as the risk-on party has taken a bit of a breather it seems, despite rate cut expectations becoming even more embedded after the hawkish US CPI surprise last Thursday – strange move, and we’ll be surprised if probabilities don’t reverse within the next couple of price data points.
