YEN SUMMARY: *Sep29 Dollar-yen open Y112.34, range Y112.27 to Y112.69

*Dollar-yen opened in Asia toward the lower side of the Y112.26 to Y113.21 range

witnessed yesterday, where modest US dollar weakness was the main theme as

profit-taking set in.

*Japan's data deluge has largely went unnoticed, although a healthy bounce in

Household spending was seen and Industrial Production rose by 2.1%m/m against

expectations of 1.8%, while Retail Sales dropped 1.7%m/m, from 1.1%m/m prior

*Dollar-yen rose from around Y112.40 to Y112.67 on larger-than-expected demand

into today's Tokyo-fix

*Pullbacks were shallow and limited to Y112.53, further demand then saw the

dollar push to a fresh session high of Y112.69

*For the balance of the session the pair consolidated within a tight Y112.56 to

Y112.67 range.

*Hourly resistance is seen in the mid-Y112.70's, while Asia's low of Y112.27

provides support
