Macro Bias: LONG NOK / SHORT JPY
Why NOKJPY?
1. Fundamental Macro (ENDO):
Norway (NOK):
Strong inflationary pressure, positive PMI, robust M2 growth.
Massive fiscal surplus driven by energy exports – best debt/GDP ratio in the G10.
Norges Bank still maintaining relatively high interest rates.
Positive Terms of Trade, central bank balance sheet (CBBS) is shrinking (long-term bullish for NOK).
Japan (JPY):
Economic stagnation and deflationary risks, weak PMI and consumer spending.
Negative real yields, central bank remains ultra-accommodative, extreme debt/GDP ratio.
Persistent deflationary sentiment – classic “funding currency” for global carry trades.
2. COT Positioning (Commitments of Traders):
JPY is the most crowded short in the entire G10: hedge funds and leveraged funds are aggressively short JPY.
NOK positioning is neutral to slightly long – no overcrowding risk on the long side.
3. EXO & Sentiment Signals:
Terms-of-trade and projected GDP/CPI all favor NOK.
Sentiment, macro “score,” and risk/reward models consistently generate a long NOKJPY signal.
Exogenous indicators (futures, commodity impulse, sentiment, parity) all support NOK strength.
4. Technicals & Carry Edge:
NOKJPY remains in a strong multi-month uptrend.
Major carry advantage: NOK rates are much higher than JPY, yielding significant positive swap.
Every recent pullback has been bought, and momentum remains bullish.
Key Reasons for the Trade:
Multi-model consensus: No contradiction between macro, COT, exo, and technicals.
NOK is “king of G10” by every fundamental measure; JPY is the weakest currency this cycle.
Textbook carry trade for 2025.
Risks:
Only a sudden global “risk-off” or a central bank policy shock could temporarily disrupt the trend.
Currently, there is no crowding risk on NOK longs.
SUMMARY:
LONG NOKJPY is the cleanest, highest-conviction swing trade for this cycle – every model (macro, COT, exo, sentiment, carry) is in agreement.
Every meaningful pullback is a buying opportunity.
