Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/JPY soared off its record lows to trade this morning at 96.11 adding 0.07 and continuing to rise.

As investors search for more risk, the JPY is losing some steam, in this arena and as the euro continues to build momentum after yesterdays vow by the ECB to save the monetary union.

Draghi told the Global Investment Conference in London that the ECB is “ready to do whatever it takes to preserve the euro” within its mandate and that he was confident “it will be enough”.
