Analysis and Recommendations:
The EUR/JPY broke above the 107 level to trade at 107.19 dipping 18pts this morning as the euro gained a bit of momentum. The political uncertainty and the contrasting views of the Bank of Japan and monetary policy as pointed out in speeches yesterday by the Deputy of the Bank as well as Shinto Abe the possible next Prime Minister continues to weaken the Japanese currency.
Positive sentiment in the EU after successful bond sales and news from Greece helped support the euro. Traders will wait for Mr. Draghi and the ECB later in the week.
