Daily Update 27/11/2024

Key Headline:

  • JPY Strengthens: Driven by increased speculation of a potential rate hike.
  • Month-End Activity Anticipated: Possible positioning adjustments ahead of the upcoming US holidays.


Yesterday Recap

JPY emerged as the strongest performer in yesterday’s trading, while GBP weakened across the G10. This came after BoE Chief Economist Huw Pill indicated that recent budget measures would have minimal effects on inflation and employment, prompting markets to extend expectations for a 75-bps rate-cut path into 2025.


Meanwhile, the Fed minutes released last night provided little new insight, reaffirming officials' preference for a gradual approach to rate cuts, leaving the USD unchanged.
