USD/JPY rises towards 144 after US consumer sentiment revised higher

The final revision to the University of Michigan consumer sentiment index has actually seen all the readings revised a bit higher. Well quite a bit higher as it goes, which is a little surprising to be honest, given all that has been going on in recent weeks. This news has helped to lift the USD/JPY to fresh session highs. Just now the USD/JPY rose to 143.91 and that is its highest level of the week. At the same time the move higher in the USD/JPY has taken the GBP/JPY and EUR/JPY higher with it. The next technical level of note on the topside is at 144.31 and then at 144.64 should this topside move extend further. The USD/JPY is right now at 143.84
