Church Brewing: where the customers are the congregation and the choir | SaltWireSINGAPORE - The dollar kicked off the last quarter of the year on the front foot on Monday as the prospect of higher-for-longer U.S. rates provided solid support, pushing the yen to an 11-month low.
"Fear of intervention by the BOJ above the 146 level has come and gone and the currency is now above 148 to the dollar and the BOJ remains absent from currency markets," said Olivier d'Assier, Axioma's head of applied research for APAC. In the broader currency market, the euro lost 0.07% to $1.0565, after ending the previous quarter with a 3% fall, its worst performance in a year.
"I'd rather be in dollars at the moment than euros or pounds or others," said Kiwibank's Kerr."I think the dollar will find a bit more support."
