USD/JPY clocks fresh three-week high, focus on Fed's long-run rate forecasts

• USD/JPY is solidly bid, having scaled the 200-day moving average (MA) yesterday.
• Focus on the Fed - an Upward revision of terminal rate could bode well for the greenback.

The USD/JPY pair hit a high of 110.69 a few minutes ago, having witnessed a bullish break above the 200-day moving average of 110.18 yesterday.

Fed rate hike has been priced-in

A 25 basis point rate hike has been priced in with the CME FedWatch showing a 96.3 percent probability of a lift today.

So, the focus will be on the terminal rate. The dollar will likely pick up a strong bid if the Fed hints at a faster pace of rate rises and pushes up long-run interest rate forecasts. As of now, the central bank sees interest rate rising to 3.4 percent in 2020.

On the other hand, a dovish hike could yield a broad-based sell-off in the greenback. As of writing, the spot is trading at 110.62
