EUR/JPY wavers above 133

EUR/JPY drops from 133.40

Currently, the EUR/JPY cross traded higher by 0.49% at 133.08 levels, retreating from midpoint on 133 handle post data. The cross in EUR/JPY erased partial gains as the shared currency was dragged down by mixed EMU data with unemployment rate missing estimates while EZ CPI data print coming out a touch better.

On the other handle, the yen remains modestly flat versus the US dollar as traders continue to digest today’s BOJ’s monetary policy statement.
