DOLLAR: The USD firmed across the board overnight (excluding against CAD) with
the DXY comfortably holding above the 50-dma, last at 95.20. Next resistance is
seen at 95.40 which represents the 50% retracement of 96.98-93.81. USDJPY
touched near 11-month highs of Y113.96 before meeting reported Japanese exporter
supply ahead of Y114.00. A break here is likely to accelerate the move toward
Y114.73/76 (Nov6 2017 high/1.618% swing Y113.17-110.59). UST yields are starting
to pick up renewed momentum, the US 10y held above 3.02% on Friday with the

$1188. Downside support at $1183.94 from the 76.4% retracement of
$1180.89-1193.81. Option-expiries of note for today's NY cut are EURUSD
