EUR/JPY is under the bears' thumb

EUR/JPY is getting ready to finish the fourth week in decline at the lowest levels since the beginning of February. The cross plunged early in Asia despite rather dismal Industrial Production and Household Spending reports as stronger inflation numbers led the market to believe that further BOJ easing is not on the cards yet. The major support of 138.00 looms large. It is likely to cap the intraday decline and? possibly, trigger some upside correction ahead of the weekend. The upside is most likely to be limited by the resistance of 138.40/50.
