AUD/JPY holds near 110.50 as BoJ uncertainty weighs on Japanese Yen
AUD/JPY Price Forecast: Gains ground above 110.00 as mild bullish bias persists
AUD/JPY pulled back before finding buyers near the 50-day EMA and 110 yen support, with the interest rate differential and Japan's oil import vulnerability keeping the bullish trend intact and a target set at 112.30 with a stop at 109.
Since mid-March 2026, the AUD JPY currency pair has moved mostly downward, marking its first sustained reversal after a long climb starting August 2025. After nearly seven months of steady gains, this drop hits hard for traders who bet on rising returns.

AUD/JPY's selloff is accelerating as renewed risk aversion combines with a growing “stagflation trap” that is undermining the Reserve Bank of Australia's hawkish outlook. While markets still price around a 72% chance of a May rate hike, surging energy and fertilizer costs are increasingly seen as a drag on growth rather than a simple inflation boost.
Japanese yen pairs are approaching key inflection points, with USD/JPY capped below 160, GBP/JPY testing resistance near 213, and AUD/JPY rolling over towards support. While the broader bias still leans bullish for yen crosses, near-term price action suggests traders may first need to navigate a period of consolidation or pullback before the next directional move unfolds.
