Bearish Yen, Positive Carry Trade Deutsche Bank FX Strategists are calling for USDJPY of115 by year-end 2014. and 120 by year-end 2015. See DB FX Blueprint published 119/14. and note that #2 of the top 10 themes of 2014 (p. 5-6) revolves around extended weakness in the Japanese Yen vs. USD. Consider a positive carry solution of buying a long-dated in the money call and selling an in the money knock-out for positive carry and time decay, as well as very high gamma for gearing to a short-term move. Example: USDJPY 10yr forward reference: -77.75 Buy 10yr 110% USDcJPYp Sell 10yr 115% USDcJPYp knock-out Net -4.5% premium paid If all else stayed equal, roll yield would result in —10% return, thanks to the steepness of the forward curve. If the yen sold off sharply versus the dollar tomorrow through 109.50, for example, the premium of the option could spike up —40%, for a much greater near-dated return. Max loss is premium paid. Indicative levels only. Subject to market movement. Source: DB Key Client Partners and Bloomberg, 1/7/14.
