What Moves AUD/JPY

A pair's price is one currency's value measured against another, so the economy behind each side matters.

Australian Dollar (AUD)

Australia · Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) · Free float

The Australian Dollar (the "Aussie") is a liquid commodity currency, sensitive to iron ore, coal and gold prices and to demand from China.

Major contributors to the economy

  • Iron ore and coal mining
  • Liquefied natural gas
  • Education and tourism
  • Agriculture
  • Financial services

Key factors

  • Commodity prices. Iron ore, coal and gold prices strongly influence the Aussie.
  • China's economy. China is Australia's largest export market.
  • RBA policy. Rate decisions and guidance from the Reserve Bank of Australia.
  • Global risk appetite. The Aussie tends to rise when investors are optimistic.

Japanese Yen (JPY)

Japan · Bank of Japan (BoJ) · Free float

The Japanese Yen is the third most traded currency and a classic safe haven. Very low Japanese interest rates make it the main funding currency for "carry trades".

Major contributors to the economy

  • Cars and machinery
  • Electronics and semiconductors
  • Services
  • Overseas investment income

Key factors

  • Bank of Japan policy. Japan kept ultra-low rates for decades; any move towards higher rates strengthens the Yen.
  • Interest-rate gap. The gap between Japanese and foreign yields drives carry trades and Yen weakness or strength.
  • Risk sentiment. In global stress, carry trades unwind and the Yen tends to rally.
  • Government intervention. Japan's Ministry of Finance has intervened to stop sharp Yen falls.

How AUD and JPY Interact

The Japanese Yen is a traditional safe haven. In periods of market stress, investors tend to move money into it, which often pushes it higher against the Australian Dollar even when local economic data is unchanged.

The Australian Dollar is a commodity currency, so swings in the prices of its main exports often show up in this pair.

Central-bank policy matters on both sides: the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and the Bank of Japan (BoJ). When one of them is expected to keep interest rates higher than the other, that currency usually attracts capital and strengthens; a narrowing gap tends to reverse the move.

Markets to Watch

  • Iron ore prices AUD

    Usually move with the Australian Dollar

  • China data (PMIs, trade) AUD

    Strong Chinese data supports the Aussie

  • Japanese 10-year government bond yield JPY

    Higher yields tend to support the Yen

  • Nikkei 225 JPY

    Often rises when the Yen weakens

  • AUD RBA policy meetings
  • AUD Australian CPI
  • AUD Australian jobs data
  • AUD Chinese trade and PMI data
  • JPY Bank of Japan policy meetings
  • JPY Tokyo CPI
