Keep an eye on the resistance for a breakout or potential retracement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ADP National Employment Report showed U.S. private payrolls added 143,000 jobs in September, surpassing forecasts and giving the market a boost ahead of Friday\u2019s non-farm payrolls report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Friday&#8217;s report meets or exceeds expectations, we could see further dollar strength as traders become more confident in the U.S. economic outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Yen Weakens Amid Dovish Signals<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The yen came under heavy selling pressure after Japan\u2019s new prime minister indicated that the country is not ready for additional rate hikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following his comments and a meeting with the Bank of Japan governor, the USD\/JPY pair rose to 146.575, and briefly touched 146.885, a level not seen since early September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Japan\u2019s dovish stance contrasts sharply with the resilience in the U.S. economy, making the yen less attractive for traders seeking higher yields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/5Things?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#5Things<\/a>: The yen falls the most in more than two years.
