[September 29, 2026 Issue] Summary of This Week's Featured Articles
This Week’s Key FX Topics
USD/JPY climbed to around 159.03 last week on rising U.S. yields and a short-covering of speculative yen longs. However, it fell back after reports that President Trump expressed concern about yen weakness at the U.S.-Japan summit, briefly dipping below 157 at the start of the week.
The biggest focus this week is “Which October rate-hike expectations strengthen more: the Fed or the BOJ?” Attention is on whether the BOJ’s post-September-hike view of “no rush for the next move” will be revised by the BOJ Summary of Opinions and Tankan on 10/1 and the Tokyo area CPI on 10/2.
The U.S. faces a data rush: the PCE deflator on 9/30, ISM Manufacturing PMI on 10/1, and September jobs report on 10/2. If inflation strength is confirmed, dollar buying may intensify via increased expectations for additional hikes.
In the Middle East, U.S.-Iran talks on reopening the Strait of Hormuz are making halting progress. Higher crude prices tend to lift USD/JPY via both higher U.S. yields and increased import costs for Japan, while cheaper oil on negotiation progress could expand the downside range.
GAITAME.COM assumes a central range of 156.70–158.50 (forecast 156.00–159.60). The 159 area faces headwinds from U.S.-Japan jawboning against yen weakness and intervention fears. Also watch for end-month/quarter flows on 9/30.
