Equities ended higher across the board

AUD/JPY: The AUD/JPY pair is now trading within the Kumo. Any decisive movement to the south will push prices to exit the cloud with further bearish sentiment. Alternatively, a higher thrust of the market would lead the currency pair to surpass the upper level of the cloud. The next resistance is seen at the previous top.
Market View
Equities ended higher across the board, led by the US, taking S&P 500 7% higher for the week. The pick-up in risk appetite was not due to an improvement in the situation in Ukraine, but simply easing uncertainty. VIX is down roughly 10 points for the week to just north of 20. Consumer discretionary and tech were among the best sectors, while defensives (utilities, real estate, staples) underperformed along with energy.
Dow Jones rose 0.8%, S&P500 1.2% and NASDAQ 2.1%. Asian markets and U.S. futures are in the red territory this morning.
In the FX space, EURUSD, focus this week turns to rising oil prices, PMIs and Fed speeches.

Hold onto your hats, folks! The Japanese yen took a nosedive after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) left its ultra-loose policy settings unchanged, including its closely watched yield curve control (YCC) policy. But wait, there's more! The BOJ also removed its forward guidance, which had previously pledged to keep interest rates at current or lower levels. So, what's the scoop? Market expectations had been subdued going into the meeting, but some were still hoping for tweaks to the forward guidance to prepare for an eventual exit from the bank's massive stimulus
