On the NZD/JPY chart, we can see upward trend which had been formed just a month ago. Now it is becoming more intense. Especially, the Japanese yen lost in value today when the Bank of Japan revealed that they will not to change its monetary policy, keeping the stimulus program unchanged. The Bank of Japan also stated that won't raise interest rates in the foreseeable future. Although it has the reasons for the rate change and tightening of monetary policy considering that GDP growth for five consecutive quarters, good situation in labor market, despite the weak wage growth. But the Bank of Japan stated that they are not interested in strengthening of the yen because the weak yen will have a positive impact on the economy and unemployment level.
The new Zealand dollar managed to strengthen against the yen weakening. Although this week was received contradictory statistics affecting the NZD value: GDP growth was weaker than expected in both quarterly and YoY, achieving +0.5% and +2.5%, respectively. But the index of business activity PMI exceeded expectations and amounted 58.5, which is the highest level since January 2016.
