After the two days meeting, BoJ board of members unanimously agreed to maintain its cash rate at -0.1%, while leaving the bond purchase ceiling at 12 trillion yen annually, Besides, BoJ stressed that the cost rate will be remained at low level to support the economy that hit badly by the outbreak of Covid-19. Besides, the significant jump in US treasury yield further boosted the value of the currency pair USDJPY to higher level. In last trading session, US treasury yield surged to 14 months high after Federal Reserve declined to extend a pandemic-era rule that relaxed the amount of capital banks had to maintain against Treasury and other holdings. With the backdrop of letting the plan expired, it may urge the banks to sell-off their treasury holdings in order to fulfil the requirement of Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) and eventually pushed the treasury yield to a higher level. As of writing, the pair of USD\/JPY surged 0.02% to 108.90.<\/p>\n<p>In the commodities market, the crude oil rose by 0.01% to $61.45 per barrel after countries decided to resume using the Astra Zeneca vaccine. Last week, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) concluded that the benefit of the vaccine outweighs the possible risk of side effect, while emphasizing that the vaccine is safe and effective to be used. Besides, the gold price appreciated by 0.05% to $1746.99 per troy ounce amid the resurgence of virus across Europe countries lifted the market demand toward the safe-haven asset.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"105%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"53%\"><strong>Nation &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"11%\">22:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"53%\">USD \u2013 Existing Home Sales (MoM)(Feb)<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">6.69M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"12%\">6.49M<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center\" width=\"10%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-162881\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/220321-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded higher following prior breakout above the previous resistance level at 91.55.
