- USD/JPY trades back and forth around 149.00 amid a risk-off mood.

The USD/JPY pair consolidated in a narrow range of around 149.00 as investors remained baffled between supporting the US Dollar and the Japanese Yen amid a risk-off mood. Deepening tensions between Israel and Hamas have prompted expectations of participation from other Middle East economies in the war, which has impacted the demand for safe-haven assets heavily.
USD/JPY remains sideways as the upside is being restricted due to hopes of an intervention by the Bank of Japan (BoJ) in the FX domain to support the Japanese Yen while the downside is well-supported as the surprisingly upbeat Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report has prompted expectations of one more interest-rate hike from the Federal Reserve (Fed).
This week, the major is expected to remain volatile as the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data will be released on Thursday. The core consumer inflation is foreseen to grow at a steady pace of 0.3% in September.
