Congress Passes Fiscal Cliff Deal – The Breakdown
In a final hour maneuver, Congressional leaders brokered a deal that will allow the US economy to avert the Fiscal Cliff and alleviate pressure on the financial markets. The passage is being considered by some to be a victory for US President Barack Obama. But, by others, it shifts the focus to mid February when discussions are likely to begin over the impending debt ceiling.
With the bill set to be signed into law by US President Barack Obama, focus has now shifted to the impending debt ceiling debate – likely to begin in mid-February. The concern remains over the fact that Democratic leaders will need to make further concessions on spending to Republicans in order to allow an extension of the $16.4 trillion ceiling. An inability to do so would plunge the government into a plausible shutdown. This will likely include cutbacks in entitlement spending and other programs in order to equalize Republican concessions for the Fiscal Cliff deal.

Two largest rating agencies consider US fiscal cliff deal insufficient
Moody's and Standard and Poor's credit rating agencies urged US lawmakers on Thursday to increase their efforts to tackle the country's budget deficit, as they consider the last-minute fiscal cliff measures insufficient. The deal which was struck on Tuesday between Democrats and Republicans, with the aim to avoid automatic year-end tax increases and spending cuts, improves the current situation but does not lay foundations for lowering debt ratios in the medium term, Moody's rating agency told Reuters. Moody's senior credit officer Steven Hess said that the agency would wait for the outcome of the measures adopted by the US government before making decisions on the rating outlook or the rating itself.
Pending the signature of President Obama, expected to be done shortly, the US officially avoids that millions of citizens suffer tax hikes and spending reductions, which would have brought the U.S. economy into recession according to economists' projections. Worth not forgetting though, is that still plentiful of unresolved pressing issues remain, with the most immediate being the need to raise the federal borrowing limit, with the deadline over 2 month from now.-FXstreet.com

ECB, BOE in Prime Focus this Week
With the Fiscal Cliff behind us and the impending debt ceiling debate at least another month away, market focus will return to plain economic fundamentals next week. The sentiment is being bolstered by two central bank announcements – the ECB (January 10th, 7:45AM EST) and BOE (January 10th, 7:00AM EST). Although nothing really new is expected, both events are still likely to take the lion’s share of attention.
Nothing is expected to happen when the Bank of England meets for the first time in 2013. Although concerns have emerged over a divide in the central bank, it is unlikely that the monetary body will move to do anything other than wait-and-see. The key remains in the results from the Funding for Lending program, which is entering its sixth month of operation. In the same respect, the ECB is unlikely to move when it decides on interest rates on Thursday. Instead, monetary policy leaders will continue to highlight the option of the OMT scheme in quelling any more crisis concerns, and likely point to stabilization in the region’s member economies in justifying no rate change.

Japan to buy ESM bonds to stabilize the yen
The big story in the Asian session is the announcement by Japan of its commitment to purchase ESM bonds to help stabilize Europe, Japan Finance Minister Taro Aso told reporters. The decision-maker added that Japan will buy European ESM bonds using FX reserves, although amount of bond buys is undecided at this point, he said. In another Reuters headline, Mr. Aso said the buys will start as soon as today. Meanwhile, the Economic Revival Minister Amari said that upcoming BoJ stimulus will be “significant”.
Meanwhile,after months of uncertainty and struggle to reach a compromise in Congress, lawmakers finally voted on a deal to avoid falling completely off of the fiscal cliff. The agreement, voted on early New Year’s Day by the Senate, was finally passed by the House late at night, just days before the new Congress is sworn in. Tax reform dominated much of the heated debate in recent weeks, but the Democrats and Republicans finally reached an agreement in order to avoid a significant impact on economic activity, at least in the short-term.

Eurozone crisis still far from over
Eurozone unemployment reached a record high of 11.8% in November, the European Commission reported on Tuesday. Data also showed an increase in youth unemployment to 24.4%. This proves that the crisis in the area is still far from over, despite recent opinions to the contrary (including European Commission head Jose Manuel Barroso’s hopeful declarations this morning). Martin van Vliet from ING, who notices this latest wave of optimism among Eurozone consumers and businesses suggests that “with more fiscal austerity in the pipeline, the debt crisis still unresolved, and unemployment rising (and hitting a fresh record high of 11.8% in November), consumers and hence businesses still have plenty to worry about. Moreover, despite the recent improvement, Eurozone economic sentiment remains in recession territory.”
German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a meeting with Greek PM Antonis Samaras in Berlin on Tuesday, during which the Greek leader assured that his country was delivering on promises to implement austerity measures and was carrying out reforms in return for European aid. “We are trying to win back credibility, on the part of the people of Europe and on the part of the markets,” Samaras told reporters during a press conference. Angela Merkel praised Greece’s efforts to reduce its debt load so far and expressed her interest in the progress of implementation of the previously agreed austerity measures. She also warned that 2013 will be a tough year for the Eurozone. “We must agree on stronger economic policy cooperation by June this year, and there is plenty of work ahead of us,” she said.

Limited chance of ECB rate cut in January; BoE unlikely to act
Not much excitement is expected from the first ECB and BoE monetary policy meetings of 2013, as the majority of economists believe both central banks will remain on hold this month. Nevertheless, there are some doubts concerning ECB's action, as Mario Draghi hinted in December at a possibility of another rate reduction.
The general expectation for ECB's January monetary policy meeting is that of no change. Despite the fact that the central bank signalized its readiness to perform further rate cuts, "they know as well as everyone else in the market that we can’t carry on with such low interest rates for ever," as Steve Ruffley suggests. Other contributors point out that the OMT program has brought relief to the markets, that peripheral countries' bond yields have dropped and that "fundamentals are showing signs of stabilization in major countries like France and Germany," in the words of Richard C. Lee, and that all of these factors significantly reduce the need for a cut.

Cautious economic optimism induces ECB to hold rates
The ECB Governing Council unanimously decided to maintain the main interest rate at 0.75% at their first monetary policy meeting of 2013. ECB head Mario Draghi revealed a more positive outlook on the European crisis during the press conference following the interest rate announcement. The president suggested that inflation should decline below 2% during 2013. He said that economic weakness in the Eurozone will extend into the new year but that it should give way to a recovery later in the year, as confidence in financial markets is improving gradually and bond yields are seen falling considerably. Credit conditions, already satisfactory, should continue improving as well, as the two long term refinancing operations helped stave off disorderly delevering.
Mario Draghi stressed the importance of a rapid implementation of structural reforms by Eurozone governments in order to increase competitiveness in the area. This should boost growth potential and lead to a rise in employment. The ECB head also pointed out the necessity of establishing an integrated financial framework in the Eurozone of which the “single supervisory mechanism (SSM) is one of the main building blocks.” Jamie Coleman from Forex Live comments on ECB's lack of action this month: “Draghi did the euro a lot of good in the near-term by taking a rate cut off the table. But in the bigger picture he's done the ECB a disservice by leading the market to expect a rate cut at the December meeting only to change tack nearly 180 degrees at the following meeting. Central bankers are not supposed to react to each and every blip in sentiment and it appears that Draghi is doing just that.”

Focus on Bernanke speech; revenge of the doves?
With the European debt crisis temporarily buried underground, and the US debt ceiling still too many weeks far down the road to become a pressing issue, most of the weekend headlines were stolen by Japan and its quest to set a highly ambitious 2% inflation. However, on the horizon the sound of helicopter helices loom, as Federal Reserve President Ben Bernanke prepares to give a speech at the University of Michigan at 21GMT, NY close time, following the latest controversial FOMC minutes.
NAB notes: “This is his first public address since the December FOMC minutes that sparked so much chatter and market volatility surrounding the possibility that the Fed could mark time on the current phase of its QE programme by year end.” NAB expects Bernanke’s comments “to be directed at disabusing his audience that stropping balance sheet expansion as a prelude to commencing to take back policy stimulus are events that could be separated by years not months” the bank says. “If so, expect the USD to be subject to some fresh downward pressure…” NAB concludes.

Bernanke provides no signs of QE expiration; raising debt ceiling crucial
Ben Bernanke is giving a speech at the University of Michigan, with the talk centered on two big issues. One is the long run sustainability of the US debt, while the other is the fragile recovery. Fed's Bernanke said Federal budget must be brought under control, warning that plans to adjust the budget should be carefully well thought in order to avoid pushing the economy into recession He said that the economy "is not out of the woods", and stressed the improved optimism after the fiscal cliff deal, which in Bernanke's words, "eliminated a good bit of the restrictive components."
Fed's Bernanke noted 'some modest improvement' in jobs market, although he wants to see rosier numbers in the economy and the labour market. With regards to the number of tools available to stimulate the economy, Bernanke said "the Fed is not out of ammunition", adding that judging by the reaction of markets since the establishments of the first QE program, "overall QE has succeeded in reducing long-term rates; we have found (QE) to be an effective tool." Bernanke said is early to determine the effect of asset purchases, suggesting the extension of QE in the near term seems a done deal, while waiting further proves, especially in the labour market, to determine length of QE extension. While growth has been moderate, the housing sector, has shown positives signs, Bernanke said. "For the first time since 06/07 we have seen sustained increase in home prices, which should help us throughout the year..." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/15012013/

Fitch warns it might cut US rating
Much to the chagrin of investors, a fresh warning from the ratings agency Fitch was issues, stating that a debt ceiling failure would likely cause a ratings review. “…With no legal authorization for net debt issuance, the Treasury would be forced to immediately eliminate the deficit – a fiscal contraction twice as great as the recently avoided ‘fiscal cliff’ – arrears on such obligations would not constitute a default event from a sovereign rating perspective, but very likely prompt a downgrade even as debt obligations continued to be met.” As such, Fitch Ratings’ expectation – along with that of the American public and general contingent of market participants – is that Congress will raise the debt ceiling, thereby leaving the risk of a U.S. sovereign default as extremely low. “Nonetheless, a, failure to raise the debt ceiling in a timely manner will prompt a formal review of the U.S. sovereign ratings.” notes Joe Wiesenthal.

Nowotny’s comments boost the euro
The member of the ECB governing council Ewald Nowotny declared at the Euromoney press conference in Austria on Wednesday that the Eurozone is bound to contract in 2013 and that growth would return in 2014. Nowotny warned that economic activity would decrease this year, adding however that this trend should start reverting in the third semester of the year. Nevertheless, he suggested that growth would not come back until the beginning of 2014. Nowotny also commented that the euro exchange rate is “not a matter of major concern,” responding to Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean Claude-Juncker’s earlier concerns over the excessive strength of the currency. He assured that EU banks depend less and less on the central bank’s funding.
After a year of upheaval across peripheral Europe in 2012, the single currency managed to notch a steadfast gain against its American counterpart during the latter months. Quantifying this advance into the frame of the previous six months however, the EUR has climbed a sizable +8.0% against the USD – posing a fresh threat to the European economy just as many had assumed it was in escape velocity from its debt crisis.

Intraday targets could be found at 1.3333 (R2) and then at 1.3347 (R3). Downwards scenario: Downwards scenario: Market decline below the support level at 1.3269 (S1) might change overall technical picture and shift market sentiment to the bearish side.

Fiscal negotiations hope to avoid destabilizing a fragile US economy
The remainder of 2012 and early 2013 has thus far been dominated by the “fiscal cliff” negotiations in Washington and the unfinished business associated with them. The repercussions of these political decisions will have far-reaching consequences on the economy, confidence, financial markets and perhaps most importantly, the US credit rating. In the immediate sense, automatic tax increases and mandatory spending cuts set to go into effect in January, amounting to as much as 5% of GDP would – if implemented – most likely drive an already fragile US economy into recession. “By contrast, a ‘kicking the can down the road; solution or underlying mentality of extending all tax cuts and forestalling any spending cuts would only simply defer many tough decisions and would likely lead to another US credit downgrade and weaker business and consumer confidence.” warns Larry V. Adam, an analyst at Deutsche Bank.
We believe that Congressional leaders will ultimately avoid these two extreme alternatives and form a compromise, however in a two- stage process. The first phase will include not extending the payroll tax cut and additional unemployment benefits into next year. The proceeds will be used as a down payment to avoid the implementation of the “sequestration” (i.e. automatic) cuts and allow the Bush-era tax cuts to be extended for an additional six months. In addition, leaders will then develop a “framework” of reduced tax deductions, possible tax increases, targeted spending cuts and entitlement reform to agree upon a more comprehensive long-term solution in a second phase of negotiations early next year. Ultimately, “assuming a fiscal cliff compromise is achieved in Washington that prudently balances growth and austerity, a recession will likely be averted.” Adam suggests. However, the US economy will grow at a tepid 2% rate over 2013 as a whole, as the “fiscal cliff,” even in its modified form, could cause a drag of approximately 1.5% to GDP. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/18012013/

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: A positive market tone dominates on the hourly chart frame and further buying interest might arise above the key resistance at 1.3394 (R1). A break through here would suggest next target at 1.3420 (R2) and if the price holds its momentum we can expect an exposure of 1.3446 (R3). Downwards scenario: Fresh low formed today limits recovery attempts for now. Next support level stays right below it at 1.3358 (S1). Break here would suggest next target at 1.3329 (S2) and any further fall would then be limited by last support at 1.3302 (S3).

Merkel’s CDU loses Lower Saxony election; setback to her national campaign
Angela Merkel’s ruling centre-right coalition government suffered yet another defeat on this Sunday’s local elections, in what the Financial Times defines as a controversial election in the state of Lower Saxony, according to final forecasts of German television. After early speculation that the result would be a narrow win for Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), the Social Democratic party (SDP) and its varies Green party ties managed to gather enough votes to reach a 1 seat majority.
Preliminary final results for Lower Saxony: CDU 36%, SPD 32,6%, FDP 9,9%, Grüne 13,7%, Linke 3,1%. SPD & Grüne coalition gets them a 1 seat majority. Other coalitions possible, yet bottom line is that CDU loses. FT: “A victory for the SPD and Greens could give a boost to their national campaign to replace Ms Merkel’s government in September. But the chancellor’s personal popularity has given the CDU a 17-point lead over the SPD in recent opinion polls.”

Jeroen Dijsselbloem, appointed new head of the Eurogroup
Jeroen Dijsselbloem, Dutch Finance Minister, has been confirmed as the new president of the Eurogroup. As a peculiar note, German finance minister Mr. Schauble said Spain did not support the appointment of Dijsselbloem for head of the Eurogroup. The Eurogroup press conference started with the outgoing Eurogroup president Jean-Claude Juncker, saying that the EU agreed with the IMF that fiscal consolidation should be continued in differentiated manner.
With regards to Cyprus, Juncker noted that the Eurozone finance ministers had delayed a €17bn bailout until March this year, amid concerns of the sizeable rescue package. Juncker had a special mention for Spain too, expressing please that the banking program remains on track. While for Ireland, Juncker said that "Ireland is a living example that adjustment programs work" Meanwhile, after reports that Greece may need an additional €9.2 Bln, the bloc's finance ministers reportedly support the disbursement in further support for Greece. Eurogroup ‘noted with satisfaction’ the progress on the Greek rescue program. When the floor was given to Oliver Rehn, European Union Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner, he said the eurogroup has taken stock of progress on direct bank recapitalisation. He cited some ‘complex technical issues’ remain on direct recaps.

Eurogroup approves Robin Hood tax
Eleven Eurozone countries (Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Portugal, Belgium, Estonia, Greece, Slovakia and Slovenia) have been authorized to start working on a financial transactions tax (the so-called Robin Hood tax). Eurozone finance ministers have given the green light to the measure today, during the Eurogroup meeting held in Brussels. The tax is based on an idea put forward by the economist James Tobin over forty years ago and its current application is aimed at controlling banks and speculative activities, such as high frequency operations, as each agreement will be taxed.
The Spanish Tesoro Público held a debt auction on Tuesday during which it sold 2.9 billion euros worth of 3- and 6- month bonds. 1.206 billion euros of 3-month bonds were auctioned at an average yield of 0.441%, compared with 1.195% seen at the previous auction. 1.578 billion euros worth of 6-month bonds, were sold at an average yield of 0.888% versus the previous 1.609%. Following the auction Spanish risk premium remained at the level of 355 points.

BoE Minutes: MPC voted unanimously to keep the interest rate at 0.5%
BoE Minutes from the MPC monetary policy meeting held on 9 and 10 January and released yesterdday reveal that the Committee voted unanimously in favor of keeping the interest rate at 0.5%. As far as the proposition to maintain the stock of asset purchases at £375 billion is concerned, eight MPC members voted in favor while one voted against. David Miles who voted against preferred to boost the QE program by a further £25 billion to a total of £400 billion.
According to the minutes, the MPC “judged that it was not necessary at this meeting to change either Bank Rate or the size of the asset purchase programme in order to meet the inflation target in the medium term,” as the economic developments throughout December had been “modestly positive”. David Miles argued however that “an easing of monetary policy, in part by discouraging any further appreciation of sterling, could help the rebalancing process and avoid potentially lasting destruction of productive capacity and increases in unemployment.”

Downwards scenario: Our focus now shifted to the next support level at 89.10 (S1). Extension of losses below it might push price towards to our targets at 88.89 (S2) and 88.69 (S3) by forming retracement formation from its initial upside penetration.

The Euro is here to stay; momentum is for higher Euro and lower Yen
The emblematic investor George Soros, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davo (Switzerland) told the audience that "the euro is now here to stay," according to Bloomberg. Soros was one of the main detractor of the shared-currency back in June last year, when structural problems in Europe were escalating, peripheral yields were going through the roof, and another long list resulting on a grey outlook for the currency. However, once the ECB President Mario Draghi sent the famous message "the ECB will do whatever it takes to save the euro", only then, a change in Soros' opinions started to form, thus he shared with the audience that the immediate crisis is over.
Although he stressed that "there is no time for complacency, and that austerity is not what Europe needs right now" notes Matthew Boesler from Business Insider. Soros added that the next 12 to 24 months will still be "very tense," as Germany will continue to err on the side of caution when taking bold actions needed to re-assure to investors the survival of the euro. Further comments from Soros, courtesy of Tony Connelly, Europe Editor for RTE News, Ireland's public service broadcaster: "The momentum is for the euro to rise and the Yen to fall, but it will be resisted by the US. The divergence between the Yen and euro will be aggravated, will badly affect Germany. Europe is an outlier in that it's not involved in quantitave easing."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: Our next resistance level lie at 1.3380 (R1). Rise above it might provide sufficient space for the appreciation towards to next target at 1.3392 (R2). Further market increase above it would face final resistance at 1.3403 (R3).Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right below the local low formed today at 1.3349 (S1). Break here would be essential to begin the short-term bearish momentum. Initial targets could be found at 1.3339 (S2) and 1.3329 (S3).

Successful retest of this level would open way towards to initial targets at 1.5733 (S2) and 1.5710 (S3).

MARKET OVERVIEW
Euro rallies on LTRO payback
The European Central Bank announced on Friday that 278 Eurozone banks would repay 137.2 billion euro borrowed in December 2011 under the 3-year Long Term Repo Operation (LTRO). The first early paybacks would take place on January 30. This is a larger amount of early repayments than the market consensus of 100 billion euros and approximately 30% of the December 2011 loans, “but it continues to leave open the question of how much will be repaid when the next €529.5bn becomes eligible for repayment on February 27th (to be announced Feb 22),” as Richard Kelly, Head of European Rates and FX Research at TD Securities points out. The expert predicts that it is “likely to be less than today’s figure, perhaps around the €75-100bn range for a total repayment of €200-225bn, slightly about our initial €150bn estimates.”
ECB head Mario Draghi said today at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland that the sovereign bond purchase program (OMT) would remain active for “as long as necessary.” He also added that the Eurozone will benefit from ECB’s accommodative policy. Draghi affirmed that the LTRO program had helped avoid a credit crunch and contributed to restoring a relative calm in the Eurozone. The ECB chief also emphasized the importance of the implementation of structural reforms and said that he expects the Eurozone to recover by the end of the year. Finally, Draghi went over the measures introduced by the ECB throughout 2012 and signalized that the challenge for this year would be to overcome the fragmentation which still differentiates financial and capital markets and causes inequality in financing.

Upwards scenario: Further upwards formation is limited to resistive measure at 1.3479 (R1). A break above it would suggest next target at 1.3492 (R2). If the price holds its momentum we can expect price increase towards to 1.3506 (R3). Downwards scenario: Instrument trapped to the consolidation formation after its initial uptrend development. Risk of further depreciation is seen below the next support level at 1.3447 (S1). Clearance here might put selling pressure to the pair and enable next targets at 1.3433 (S2) and 1.3418 (S3).

Downwards scenario: If the price manages to overcome our key support at 1.5745 (S1), we expect to see downtrend development towards to our next target at 1.5725 (S2) and any further depreciation would then be limited to 1.5704 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Although consolidation development looks reasonable on the hourly timeframe.

MARKET OVERVIEW
Eurozone periphery nations recover up to €100bn in private funds – FT
On its front cover, the Financial Times highlights the growing capital flocking back to Eurozone’s peripheral countries, with the sum amounting over €100bn of private funds since late last year. From the FT: “The scale of the net inflows, equivalent to about 9% of the economic output of Spain, Italy, Portugal, Ireland and Greece according to calculations by ING, highlight the revival in investor confidence in Europe’s monetary union after Mario Draghi, ECB president, pledged to preserve its integrity.”
However, as the Financial Times stresses, the private inflows are still little if compared to the far larger outflows from 2011/2012, a time when the Eurozone tail risk led many investors to remove huge sums of money from debt-exposed countries. The FT adds: “Total net private inflows into the periphery countries totalled €93bn in the last four months of 2012, according to ING. In contrast, the first eight months had seen €406bn flow out of the five countries, equivalent to almost 20 per cent of gross domestic product in the periphery economies. In 2011, outflows from the periphery totalled €300bn.”

MARKET OVERVIEW
Fed to leave rates unchanged in January and probably for the rest of the year
The Federal Reserve’s monetary policy meeting is expected to be uneventful this month, following the FOMC’s announcement of open ended QE4 in December which would be finalized only when the unemployment rate falls below 6.5% or inflation accelerates above 2.5%. The lack of action would also be justified by the fact that “the fundamental picture remains relatively unchanged,” as Richard C. Lee points out. The analyst acknowledges that “pockets of the economy have improved over the last quarter” but nevertheless he believes that “the Federal Reserve will likely remain steadfast in its current policy direction for much of 2013.” Other analysts polled for the special forecast report agree with this opinion. Their projections are quite similar, with Yohay Elam suggesting that “rates will probably remain low until 2015, and less QE isn’t due until 2014,” Albero Muñoz predicting that “it’s not very likely that we have any change in monetary policy through 2013″ and Ilian Yotov saying that “the Fed will stay the course at its January meeting and quite possibly for the rest of the year.”
According to Yohay Elam the FOMC will rather concentrate on the economic outlook and it “could acknowledge the ongoing slow recovery and the lower level of political uncertainty as positive factors, but without any hint on policy change anytime soon.” Valeria Bednarik emphasizes however that if the members consider withdrawing QE gradually towards the end of the year we could expect “strong risk aversion rallies during the announcement, with dollar favored across the board.” The FOMC will release its monetary policy statement on January 30 at 19:15 GMT.

MARKET ANALYSIS – Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: A buying interest pushed the Euro on the local high’s yesterday and determine positive bias in near term perspective. Successful attack to the 1.3498 (R1) price level might encourage uptrend formation with possible intraday targets at 1.3511 (R2) and 1.3525 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: Clearance of next support level at 1.3477 (S1) might significantly stimulate Bearish oriented traders. Possible price devaluation would then be targeting supportive measures at 1.3464 (S2) and 1.3449 (S3).

Upwards scenario: The GBPUSD is now losing upside momentum after the former strength. Next resistance ahead is seen above the yesterday high at 1.5774 (R1). Rising up above this level would suggest next targets at 1.5793 (R2) and 1.5813 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: Although market price remained relatively stable, depreciation below the next support level at 1.5728 (S1) might create negative traders sentiment. We expect that our intraday target at 1.5707 (S2) and 1.5685 (S3) could be exposed later on today in such case.

Upwards scenario: Measures of resistance might be activating when the pair approaches the 91.03 (R1), break here would suggest next target at 91.22 (R2). If the price holds its momentum on the upside we can expect final intraday resistive barrier at 91.42 (R3). Downwards scenario: Any penetration below our support level at 90.77 (S1) might create more scope for the USDJPY weakness in near-term perspective. We are looking to our immediate supports at 90.56 (S2) and 90.36 (S3) as next possible targets in such scenario.
