Tuesday: Oil up as focus turns to Bank of Japan
About this episode
The episode discusses rising oil prices and the anticipated decisions from the Bank of Japan regarding interest rates, featuring an interview with Mahjabeen Zaman on the yen's recent strength.
Oil prices are up in the absence of face-to-face peace talks between the United States and Iran, and the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The focus turns today to the Bank of Japan (BoJ), where a rate hold is expected. In our deep-dive interview, ANZ Head of FX Research Mahjabeen Zaman looks at why the yen has regained its strength somewhat in recent weeks, and what might happen if there’s a surprise hike by the BoJ later today.
