April 22 (Reuters) - The sky continues to fall for USD/JPY with the pair down to as low as 140.48 on EBS Monday. The bias remains down with de-dollarisation proceeding apace and especially so after U.S. President Donald Trump's bashing of Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell , .

Key supports are eyed below, and these are expected to remain in speculators' sights going forward. Daily supports include Monday's 140.48 low, 140.45 and 140.33 on September 18 and 17, 2024.

Then there is 140.00, a level associated with possible option barriers. These barriers could be large and stops below possibly massive. A break below this level could target 139.58, a trough seen on September 16, 2024.

Fibonacci retracement levels are also on being eyed closely. Fibo 38.2% retracement of the 102.59 to 161.96 move between January 2021 and July 2024 comes in at 139.28. 50% retracement is at 132.27 and Fibo 61.8% at 125.26.

Tokyo players suggest 50% retracement of the 2021-2024 move could be achieved as the year progresses and especially if the Bank of Japan maintains its hawkish stance , . The Fed, for its part, could hold off on further cuts indefinitely pending data on the effects of U.S. tariffs and other Trump administration policies , .

By Robert Fullem  —  Apr 21 - 03:29 PM

April 21 (Reuters) - The dollar index recovered some ground after hitting a three-year low earlier on Monday, but it was still lower in afternoon trade, pressured by worries over Federal Reserve independence, declining U.S. assets, and falling energy prices.

DXY reached its most oversold level on the 14-day RSI since July, 2020 following a weekend gap down in thin liquidity. U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his criticism of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, warning that the U.S. economy faces a potential slowdown unless interest rates are promptly reduced. Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee favored a wait-and-see approach for policy, saying that if tariff impacts remain confined to the 11% of the economy tied to imports, their overall effect may be relatively minor.

Trade is top of mind when hundreds of finance leaders descend on Washington this week at the semi-annual gatherings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank Group.

In U.S. data, an index of leading indicators fell 0.7% in March. Earnings, central bank speakers and PMIs are also on this week's docket. EUR/USD surged to 1.1575, its highest level in over three years, before paring gains.

Gains were exaggerated by 1.15 barrier options and thin liquidity due to the Easter holiday. EUR/USD remains overbought, yet the bulls' case is bolstered by narrow retracements, a bullish crossover of the 55-DMA above the 200-DMA and increasing position building in futures. Nearby EUR/USD support lies at the April 15 low of 1.1263. The common currency may receive another boost if Ukraine peace talks progress this week. Sources told Reuters that the European Union is looking at ways to make it easier for U.S. gas exports to comply with emissions rules.

GBP/USD trimmed its gains after nearing the 2024 high of 1.3434, as Easter Monday kept trading volumes subdued. Despite entering overbought territory following a 10-day advance, bullish momentum is expected to provide support. The 5-day moving average at 1.3281 and the April 18 low at 1.3262 serve as near-term support levels. This week’s focus includes PMIs and several appearances from Bank of England speakers.

USD/JPY remains on the defensive as U.S. equities and energy prices come under pressure.

Key events this week include Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato's visit to the U.S., as well as April Tokyo CPI and PMI data. Attention is centered on USD/JPY's 2024 low at 139.58, which lies just below the key psychological level of 140. Trend-following resistance is noted at the 200-hour moving average of 143.13 in USD/JPY. Sources indicate that the Bank of Japan is expected to communicate at next week's policy meeting that higher U.S. tariffs are unlikely to disrupt the ongoing cycle of rising wages and inflation.

Treasury yields were mixed as the curve steepened sharply. The 2s-10s curve was up about 12 basis points to +53.0bp.

The S&P 500 sank 3.3%, dragged lower by broad sector losses.

Oil slid nearly 2.2% on signs of progress in U.S.-Iran talks, while demand worries and weather sent natural gas down 6.5%.

Gold rose over 3% to a new record while copper was nearly unchanged. Heading toward the close: EUR/USD +1.12%, USD/JPY -1.05%, GBP/USD +0.63%, AUD/USD +0.62%, DXY -1.07%, EUR/JPY -0.06%, GBP/JPY -0.46%, AUD/JPY -0.46%.(Editing by Burton Frierson Reporting by Robert Fullem)

Synopsis:

HSBC argues that the US dollar is now trading below what rate differentials would imply, pointing to a growing “discount” driven by policy instability and structural concerns. Traditional FX drivers no longer explain the USD’s trajectory, and further weakness is expected against safe havens and the euro.


Key Points:

  • USD Undervalued vs Rate Differentials:
    Despite relatively supportive rate spreads, the USD is underperforming, reflecting broader investor discomfort with U.S. policy direction.

  • Policy Uncertainty a Key Drag:
    With no clarity on a stable U.S. trade policy regime, investors are pricing in ongoing volatility and geopolitical risk, undermining USD appeal.

  • Traditional Drivers Losing Influence:
    Historical relationships like interest rate spreads and economic differentials are failing to explain recent USD moves, suggesting a structural shift.

  • Targeted USD Weakness Expected:
    HSBC sees continued downside pressure on the USD versus JPY, CHF, and EUR, where safe-haven and structural flows are strongest.

  • Limited Downside in Other Crosses:
    There may be some consolidation in USD crosses where local fundamentals (e.g., in commodity or EM currencies) cap further downside for now.


Conclusion:

HSBC frames the current dollar slump as more than cyclical weakness—it’s a reputational erosion. Until the U.S. restores policy credibility, USD is likely to remain structurally pressured, particularly versus the core G10 safe-haven and funding currencies.

By Robert Fullem  —  Apr 21 - 11:38 AM

USD/JPY to the downside remains a favored trade to capitalize on the dollar's demise amid escalating trade tensions and slowing growth. This is particularly evident in the futures market, where long positions on the yen continue to grow. The latest CFTC report shows net yen longs hitting a record high as asset managers further expand their holdings in the Japanese currency. Futures open interest is at its highest point since mid-March.

Options and leveraged accounts display a less bullish stance on the yen, potentially due to spot prices hovering near the 2024 low and the possibility of the Bank of Japan shifting its tightening bias should this week's trade talks fail to yield favorable results. Reports on Monday suggest that the BOJ intends to maintain its tightening bias at next week's policy meeting, potentially shielding the government from criticism by U.S. President Donald Trump about yen weakness. However, this outlook could change if discussions between Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent this week include revaluing the yen—an unlikely scenario that could prompt the BOJ to lower growth projections. Tokyo CPI and April PMIs will offer a snapshot of the economy this week.

Trend-following momentum continues to favor USD/JPY bears, though the heightened uncertainty brings risks of a sharp reversal above short-term moving averages. Key downside levels to watch are the psychological threshold at 140 and the 2024 low of 139.58; a close below the latter could lead to testing the 200-week moving average at 138.

Synopsis:

ANZ highlights that safe-haven flows are increasingly favoring the euro amid U.S. trade policy turmoil, with the options market signaling aggressive upside positioning. The EUR/USD risk reversal curve is at its most bullish in five years, pointing to mounting expectations for further euro appreciation.


Key Points:

  • Shift in Global Confidence:
    U.S. trade uncertainty is eroding confidence in the USD, while Europe appears insulated due to the tariff pause and Germany's fiscal shift.

  • Safe-Haven Flows into EUR:
    The euro is emerging as a defensive play, especially with investor focus on stability and diversification away from USD risks.

  • Options Market Signals:
    The three-month EUR/USD risk reversal (calls vs puts) is at a five-year high, indicating strong demand for near-term euro upside.

  • Volatility Term Structure Inversion:
    Short-dated EUR calls are now more expensive than longer-dated ones—showing traders are rushing to buy upside exposure in the near term.

  • Policy Already Priced In:
    ANZ’s forecast for 75bp of ECB cuts in 2025 is fully priced, meaning rate policy is unlikely to drive EUR lower in the near term.

  • Pullback Risk:
    A modest retracement to 1.12 is possible if U.S.-Europe trade negotiations improve, but momentum remains on the upside.


Conclusion:

The euro’s rally is being fueled not just by fundamentals but by option-driven momentum, with near-term volatility and risk reversals strongly favoring more gains. Unless trade risks dissipate significantly, EUR/USD is poised to remain well bid, with ANZ pointing to continued resilience and upside potential.

Synopsis:

Morgan Stanley initiates a long EUR/USD trade with a target of 1.20, citing a durable shift in global macro narratives and a breakdown in traditional USD risk behavior. The bank expects USD-negative capital flows to accelerate unless confidence-boosting action is taken by US policymakers.


Key Points:

  • New Global Narrative:
    The outlook has shifted away from US exceptionalism. With global investors rotating away from USD, the case for structural EUR strength is building.

  • Trade Recommendation:
    Morgan Stanley has entered a long EUR/USD trade, aiming for 1.20 as the next leg higher.

  • Flow Dynamics:
    Investor reallocation toward EUR and JPY is gaining momentum, driven by Fed pricing and fading confidence in the US growth/inflation mix.

  • USD's Risk Behavior Shift:
    The USD has decoupled from traditional safe-haven behavior, weakening even during risk-off episodes—suggesting further vulnerability if this pattern persists.


Conclusion:

Morgan Stanley believes EUR/USD upside has more room to run, with broader capital flows and macro realignment supporting the euro. Without a US policy pivot to restore confidence, the dollar's decline could deepen, pushing EUR/USD toward 1.20 in the coming months.

Synopsis:

Goldman Sachs notes that foreign flows into US assets are shifting, with European investors leading equity repatriation and foreign demand tilting toward short-duration bonds. While positioning hasn't yet unwound significantly, US policy-induced uncertainty is expected to erode the USD’s structural premium.


Key Points:

  1. Equity Flows:

    • European investors are repatriating capital from US equities into European stocks.

    • However, non-European investors are still net buyers of US equities, maintaining some cushion for the USD.

  2. Fixed Income Flows:

    • Private investors continue to purchase US Treasuries, but are shifting to shorter durations.

    • Meanwhile, US credit products are seeing net selling.

  3. Positioning & Sentiment:

    • Despite shifts, there’s been no material erosion in aggregate foreign positioning in US assets—yet.

    • Goldman’s bearish USD call is based on a structural reallocation of future flows, rather than an abrupt unwind.


Conclusion:

Goldman sees a transition from USD exceptionalism to a more balanced global allocation environment. The Dollar’s premium—sustained for over a decade by superior returns—is fading as uncertainty from tariffs and fiscal policy weighs on investor confidence. This sets the stage for gradual USD depreciation, driven by flow rotation rather than capital flight.
