The pair strengthens as the US Dollar (USD) outperforms its peers, following the release of the United States (US) Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report for October and November.<\/p>\n<p>During the press time, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback\u2019s value against six major currencies, trades 0.4% higher to near 98.60.<\/p>\n<p>The US Dollar trades higher as weak US employment data failed to influence market expectations for the Federal Reserve\u2019s (Fed) monetary policy outlook. Fed\u2019s interest rate expectations remain steady as market participants believe that the labour market data was distorted by the US government shutdown. The data showed on Tuesday that the Unemployment Rate jumped to 4.6% in November.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, investors will focus on the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for November, which will be released on Thursday. Both the headline and the core CPI are expected to have grown at an annualized pace of 3%.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Japanese Yen (JPY) trades cautiously ahead of the Bank of Japan\u2019s (BoJ) monetary policy announcement on Friday. The BoJ is widely expected to raise interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) to 0.75%. BoJ\u2019s hawkish expectations are backed by the recent shift in rhetoric from Governor Kazuo Ueda, who reiterated last week that the likelihood of the \u201ccentral bank&rsquo;s baseline economic and price outlook materializing had been gradually increasing\u201d. Ueda added that the central bank is \u201cgetting closer to attaining its inflation target\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-module\">\n<div id=\"content-module-event-904537a1-46af-4a1a-b862-152efe9cd804-871\" data-type=\"event\" data-module=\"event\" data-config-topic=\"904537a1-46af-4a1a-b862-152efe9cd804\" data-config-event-id=\"8b3a0864-3ad8-4510-88a5-acaf0dc44ce0\" data-config-mode=\"Upcoming\" data-version=\"v1\" data-content-module-translate=\"0\" class=\"fxs-event-module-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"fxs-event-module-title\">Economic Indicator<\/h2>\n<div class=\"fxs-event-module-inner-calendar\">\n<div class=\"fxs-event-module-calendar-title-description-wrapper\">\n<h3 class=\"fxs-event-module-calendar-title\">BoJ Interest Rate Decision<\/h3>\n<p class=\"fxs-event-module-content\">The Bank of Japan (BoJ) announces its interest rate decision after each of the Bank\u2019s eight scheduled annual meetings. Generally, if the BoJ is hawkish about the inflationary outlook of the economy and raises interest rates it is bullish for the Japanese Yen (JPY). Likewise, if the BoJ has a dovish view on the Japanese economy and keeps interest rates unchanged, or cuts them, it is usually bearish for JPY.<\/p>\n<p>                <span>Read more.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"fxs-event-module-release\">\n<p>\n                <strong>Next release:<\/strong><br \/>\n                <span>Fri Dec 19, 2025 03:00 <\/span>\n            <\/p>\n<p>\n                <strong>Frequency:<\/strong><br \/>\n                <span>Irregular<\/span>\n            <\/p>\n<p>\n                <strong>Consensus:<\/strong><br \/>\n                <span>0.75%<\/span>\n            <\/p>\n<p>\n                <strong>Previous:<\/strong><br \/>\n                <span>0.5%<\/span>\n            <\/p>\n<p>\n                <strong>Source:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>                    <span>Bank of Japan<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The USD\/JPY pair gains 0.55% and jumps higher to near 155.50 during the European trading session on Wednesday.
