The JXY: Will It Continue to Rise?My first analysis about the JXY. It will be done periodically from now on to keep a fresh perspective over one of the most important currencies in the world.
The Japanese Currency Index (JXY) is a stock market index that measures the performance of the Japanese yen against a basket of six other major currencies: the US dollar, the euro, the British pound, the Swiss franc, the Canadian dollar, and the Australian dollar. The JXY is calculated by weighting the currencies in the basket according to their relative importance to the Japanese economy.
Technical Analysis
On the 30-minute chart, the JXY is currently trading around its 50-day moving average (MA) and its 200-day MA. This suggests that the index will most likely reverse the trend on this smaller timeframe soon. However, the JXY is also facing resistance at its 50-day MA. If the JXY cannot break through this resistance level, it could fall back to its 200-day MA.
On the 4-hour chart, the JXY is also trading around its 50-day MA and its 200-day MA. However, the JXY is also facing resistance at its 50-day MA. If the JXY cannot break through this resistance level, it could fall back to its 200-day MA.
Fundamental Analysis
The Japanese economy is the third-largest in the world, but it has been struggling in recent years due to a number of factors, including an aging population and a declining birth rate. The Japanese government has implemented a number of policies to stimulate the economy, but these have not been successful in boosting growth.
The Bank of Japan has also taken steps to support the economy by keeping interest rates low. However, this has led to a weakening of the Japanese yen. The JXY has fallen by over 20% against the US dollar in the past year.
