FOREX: Price action in the major FX space has been very contained thus far with
Japanese markets closed & U.S. markets set to experience a holiday shortened
session, alongside a very limited Asia-Pacific docket. 
- The Antipodeans continue to modestly underperform their G10 peers, extending
yesterday's trends with AUD/USD sitting at $0.7245 & NZD/USD at $0.6804 last,
Chinese stocks are on the back foot at writing, which may be adding some modest
pressure. 
- Sterling has consolidated in the Asia-Pacific session after rallying on the
back of yesterday's draft Brexit agreement drawn up between UK PM May & EU's
Juncker. BoE's Saunders stuck to his hawkish playbook late Thursday, but his
rhetoric had little impact on GBP. 
- Coming up later today we have EZ & U.S. flash PMIs, final German GDP, as well
as Canadian CPI & retail sales. Elsewhere, ECB's de Guindos is due to speak.
