Asian markets trade mildly lower as China's coronavirus continues to spread. But losses in major indices are so far limited. In the currency markets, commodity currencies are trading to recovery some of last week's losses, together with Sterling. Yen and Dollar turn weaker despite mild risk aversion. But major pairs and crosses are confined within Friday's range in general. There is no change in the greenback's near term bullishness so far. Technically, bias stays on the downside for EUR/USD as long as 1.0985 minor resistance holds. Same for GBP/USD as long as 1.2959 minor resistance holds. USD/CAD should still take on 1.3327 resistance as long as 1.3262 minor support holds. Though, break of these levels will suggest that Dollar has topped out at least temporarily and is in pull back. In Asia, currently, Nikkei is down -0.49%. Hong Kong HSI is down -0.62%. China Shanghai SSE is up 0.09%. Singapore Strait Times is down -0.68%. 10-year JGB yield is down -0.0181 at -0.054. |
