YEN SUMMARY
YEN SUMMARY: *Sep1 Dollar-yen open Y109.98, range Y109.92 to Y110.15
*Dollar-yen opened in Asia toward the lower side of the Y109.88 to Y110.67 range
witnessed yesterday, where softer US data and US Treasury Secretary Steve
Mnuchin's, weaker US dollar is "somewhat better" for trade comment, placed the
greenback on the defensive
*As the small range would indicate, the Asia session was a low-key affair,
investors were side-lined waiting for tonight's US NFP
*Large option expiries for today include; Y109.90-110.00($1.88bn),
Y110.50-55($938mn) and Y111.00($852mn)
*Support lies at Y109.75 (38.2% fib Y108.27-Y110.67), while former hourly
support near Y110.40 should act as resistance.
