"USD/JPY Outlook: BOJ Policy Shifts and Inflation Data Analysis"

TL;DR
Nomura anticipates potential policy shifts by the Bank of Japan (BOJ) and verbal interventions from the Ministry of Finance to curb JPY depreciation, leading to a bearish outlook on USD/JPY. Despite a bullish trend for USD/JPY, bolstered by strong US economic data, Nomura expects limited upside due to anticipated Fed rate cuts and a slowdown in Japanese retail investors' foreign equity purchases. The combination of these factors suggests a risk-reward balance skewed towards short positions in USD/JPY.
