- AUD / JPY Trades Near 110 . 60 as FXStreet Cites Bank of Japan Signals
AUD/JPY traded near 110.60 yen in an early European session, with FXStreet citing support at 110.20 and resistance at 111.15 and rating the chart outlook as modestly bearish; the outlet also disclosed that AI tools assisted its technical analysis. BOJ Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino told lawmakers on October 21 that underlying inflation was “quite close” to the 2% goal. RBA Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser said the same day that the inflation outlook had become “materially worse” than in August, citing oil prices about one-third above the assumed level and AI and technology costs. After his remarks, The Guardian reported that market pricing for a November 3 RBA rate increase rose from 30% to 45%, though this reflected shifting market expectations rather than a central bank decision.

- Bank of Japan is expected to hold rates this week — but stay hawkish: CNBC survey
A CNBC survey of 16 economists and analysts found all expect the Bank of Japan to keep its policy rate at 1.25% at the end of its two-day meeting on Friday. Most expect a rate hike in December or January next year as domestic inflation and wages keep rising, with core inflation excluding fresh foods at 2.1% and inflation-adjusted wages up 1.5% from a year earlier. Some analysts see no clear sign inflation is accelerating enough to justify consecutive hikes, and say the policy board may lack consensus given the fragile domestic bond market. The 10-year JGB yield is expected to reach 3% to 3.1% by year-end, up from 2.809%, while the terminal rate is seen at 1.75% to 2% by around mid-2027.

- Should You Buy Alphabet Stock After Anthropic Raised Its Google Commitment to $121 Billion?
Anthropic updated its IPO filing on Nov. 2, adding third-quarter results. As of Sept. 30, it held $95.6 billion in cash and equivalents and $36.3 billion in short-term investments, while its purchase commitments and leases totaled about $895.4 billion, mostly for compute and infrastructure. It committed to spend at least $121.3 billion with Google from April 2026 through July 2033 regardless of usage, up from about $114.5 billion in the previous filing, which equals around 22% of Google Cloud's backlog. Anthropic has $69.8 billion of commitments due in the next 12 months, which its cash and investments cover almost twice, while its third-quarter revenue reached about $17.0 billion against an operating loss of $567 million. The author sees the next few years of the Google commitment as solid revenue, treats later years as a bet on Anthropic's growth, and thinks Alphabet stock is still worth a look at its current price.
