USD/JPY jumps to 148.80 on hopes that the BoJ will maintain its ultra-loose monetary policy stance on Tuesday. The BoJ lacks a significant wage-price spiral to back an exit to negative interest rates. Diminished Fed rate cut expectations keep the US Dollar strong near its three-week highs around 103.50.
