Surprisingly strong U.S. economic data has left markets on edge about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/us-fed-officials-tentative-on-interest-rate-adjustments-with-concerns-on-inflation\/\">outlook for U.S. inflation<\/a> and interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In May, U.S. business activity accelerated to its highest level in just over two years. Manufacturers reported surging input prices, causing a pullback in U.S. interest rate cut expectations and a rise in government bond yields. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This development has driven the dollar up almost 1% against the Japanese yen, reaching 157.11 yen. Despite Japanese government bond yields climbing to decade highs, clearing 1% at the ten-year tenor, the yen has remained relatively unaffected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Japan&#8217;s core inflation slows<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Japan&#8217;s core inflation slowed for a second consecutive month in April, meeting market expectations at 2.2%. However, this has had minimal impact on the yen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Policymakers&#8217; cautious rhetoric on inflation and the distant or minimal rate cuts have added to traders&#8217; nervousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Australian Dollar dips below key level, New Zealand Dollar remains resilient<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/australia-nz-dollars-decline-as-markets-assess-rate-outlooks\/\">Australian dollar<\/a> faded to $0.6592 on Friday, failing to hold a key $0.6650 chart level. This left it down 1.4% for the week and well below the recent four-month high of $0.6714. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The New Zealand dollar has been supported by a hawkish outlook from the Reserve Bank of New Zealand but remains 0.6% weaker for the week at $0.6098.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Euro edges up from nine-month low<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/pound-holds-steady-following-election-announcement-inflation-data\/\">euro<\/a> saw a modest rise from a nine-month low against the pound on Thursday after a key European wage indicator picked up.
