EUR/JPY supported on 138 handle

FXStreet (Guatemala) - EUR/JPY is trading at 138.08, up 0.19% on the day, having posted a daily high at 138.58 and low at 137.75.

EUR/JPY bulls are defending 138 handle and meanwhile, analysts at Rabobank, explained that the reaction in interest rates has led to talk of the EUR potentially being used as a funding currency for carry trades. “However, in a region as complex as the Eurozone, the term ‘carry trade’ should be used with caution…The ECB’s threat that QE could yet be invoked could therefore lend the EUR support if it increased demand for bonds”.
