Slight delay in the release by the source. The index measures the households' confidence on the economy, a minor indicator of financial confidence in some ways. A bit of a downtick in confidence levels but nothing that will really impact the yen on the day.
The yen's focus remains on risk sentiment and with the improvement today, USD/JPY continues to trade near the highs at 113.25 currently. EUR/JPY at 128.45 and GBP/JPY at 143.94.
