EBC Forex Snapshot, 22 Jul 2024


The dollar eased slightly on Monday as investors focused on Joe Biden's decision to end his re-election campaign. The yen gained as exports rose for a seventh month in June.


Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him as the Democratic candidate in the election. Harris quickly received the backing of many within the party but several high profile names stayed quiet.

USDJPY

Analysts said the Japanese currency could be at a turning point after falling since the beginning of 2024 as the Fed is close to cutting rates and the BOJ is widely expected to tighten its monetary policy soon.
