FOREX: Early Asia risk appetite(on US Trump comments on Turkey-Syria situation)
quickly reversed as Tokyo returned from their public holiday Tuesday. Reaction
seen as British MPs made the Brexit process brake hard on its helter skelter
Tuesday as they rejected PM Johnson's hyper-speed timetable for adopting
relevant legislation. This puts the UK on course for another Brexit delay and

Y108.35 in Europe. Option interest at Y108 and Y109 suggested to keep rate
hemmed in.
