The Day Ahead

Yesterday’s Takeaway
The Bank of Japan’s hawkish tilt β€” holding the policy rate but flagging more hikes and warning against a yield spike β€” was the dominant market mover, keeping the yen choppy and forcing investors to reassess global rate differentials. Expect today’s session to remain sensitive to JPY moves and any shifts in sovereign yields as traders reprice the odds of further BOJ tightening; that repricing can ripple into FX crosses, US Treasuries and commodity flows.

The Setup
Risk tone is subdued but watchful: VIX sits at 15.87 (+1.47%), signalling calm with a bit more nervousness, EUR/USD has jumped to 1.18 (+0.85%), and US 10-year yields eased to 4.24% (-0.24%) while Germany’s 10-year is at 2.89% (unchanged). Short-term Euribor remains elevated at 2.03%. The notable divergence is falling US yields versus persistent European yields and an emboldened BOJ β€” that mix supports FX volatility and creates two-way pressure on global rates and carry trades.

Today’s Watch
Key prints arrive at 20:30 US time when a suite of CFTC speculative net position reports posts β€” previous positions include EUR 132.7, Gold 251.2 and JPY -45.2 β€” which could amplify moves already driven by central-bank repricing. Earlier, Industrial Production for Israel is due at 11:00 (prior 0.3) but lacks a consensus forecast. Markets expect modest position churn; surprises in CFTC flows, or a larger-than-expected JPY response to BOJ rhetoric, will set the session’s tempo. Focus: JPY/jgb dynamics and whether positioning reads shift FX and commodity trends.
