USD/JPY was trading rangebound on the day with session high at 116.05 and low at 115.79.
The pair remains rangebound as traders await the key US Non-Farm-Payrolls (NFP) report.
A stronger NFP print will reaffirm the positive outlook and set the stage for the resumption of upside in the USD/JPY.
Fed rate hike speculations have been heightened overnight after bullish comments by St. Louis Fed James Bullard and San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly.
Markets now price in an 80% chance of a 25 bps Fed hike in March 2022. Upbeat jobs data could reinforce the need for faster policy tightening.
