BOJ's Himino says rates will rise, but need to watch carefully for risks

Asia Session

While BoJ's Himino's remark on rates have kept hopes high for a rate hike in January, but there is not a hint of being a hawkish one and given BoJ's history on disappointing follow up, market participants are unlikely to place their bets untill the dust have settled. USD/JPY is now trading 0.15% higher at 157.50 despite U.S. Treasury Yields stay depressed while JGB yields jumped.

Regional sentiment improves on Tuesday following the overnight rebound in the U.S. equity market. The broad risk mood seems to be supporting the antipodeans. AUD/USD is trading 0.2% higher at 0.6190, NZD/USD is trading 0.47% higher at 0.5610 while USD/CAD slips 0.02%. Else, EUR/USD is up 0.07% and GBP/USD is up 0.06%.

North American session

It was mostly a quiet session in North America but USD/JPY picked up to 157.75 after an early dip below 157 as equity losses were erased. EUR/USD was fairly stable near 1.02 though EUR/GBP slipped back below .84, GBP/USD rising to 1.2175 from a low of 1.21. AUD and CAD also saw modest gains.
