The dollar and more especially the yen rebounded from intraday weakness. EUR-USD inched towards yesterday’s low at 1.1717, with the pair at levels prevailing in the late London morning showing a modest 20-pip-plus (approx) decline on yesterday’s low. EUR-JPY was down quite sharply, putting the cross below the 122.00 level for the first time since mid July, tracking other yen crosses as the Japanese currency found renewed safe haven demand. USD-JPY posted a new five-week low at 104.03. U.S.

The dollar and yen have softened after rallying strongly yesterday on safe haven demand. Short-term speculative participants and others accumulated large long exposures in these currencies, particularly in yen crosses such as CAD-JPY, and there has naturally been some impetus to book profits with U.S. and European equity index futures finding a footing after yesterday’s rout. The DXY dollar index ebbed back to a 93.34 low after peaking yesterday at 93.58, but remains up by nearly 1% from last week’s low. EUR-USD settled around the 1.1750 mark, up on yesterday’s 1.1717 low.

The Dollar rose through the London mornings session into early N.Y. trade before sputtering a bit lower through the remainder of the session.
