FXStreet (Mumbai) - The EUR/JPY pair recovered to trade above 127.00 levels, as the single currency witnessed a technical recovery following a sell-off on renewed concerns of Grexit.
EUR/JPY recovers from one month low
The pair had dipped to 126.51, its lowest since mid-march, on renewed fears of Grexit. However, the shared currency witnessed a technical recovery, that was cut short by comments from Koichi Hamada, adviser to Japanese Prime Minister Abe. Hamada said Yen at 105 per USD is appropriate given the purchasing power parity theory.
Hamada’s comments ensured that the technical recovery in the EUR/JPY pair remained capped around 127.20 levels.
