Stronger Jobs, Stronger Dollar: What It Means for EUR/USD, ECB, and the BoJ

from The MUFG Global Markets Podcast · host MUFG EMEA

The much stronger than expected US jobs report has had the obvious impact with front-end rates and the dollar stronger. Derek Halpenny, Head of Research Global Markets EMEA & International Securities sits down with Chris Jakubowski, FX Institutional Sales to discuss the impact of the data going forward. How does this impact EUR/USD with the ECB expected to hike on 11th June? Has ECB pricing become overdone given recent economic data and how will the BoJ respond given the increased upside risks in USD/JPY?
