Forex Fundamental Analysis – The higher rates go, the harder the Fed’s job

USDJPY – Down

USDJPY trading plan:

There remains a chance that the U.S. economy can escape a recession as the Federal Reserve raises interest rates to lower inflation, but that window of opportunity for a „soft landing“ has narrowed this year as price pressures have been slow to ease, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said. The higher rates go, the harder the Fed’s job becomes. Having been criticized for missing the stubbornness of the inflation surge, officials know that monetary policy works with a lag and that the tighter it becomes the more it not only slows inflation, but economic growth and hiring too.

Investment idea: buy 147.39 and take profit 148.20.
