USD/JPY lifts to session as US stock markets prepare to reopen
The dollar is just now making some progress. Most visibly that is versus the Yen and the main reason for that is a lift in US treasury yields. The USD/JPY has now pressed above 150.70 for the first time today and that has helped to push the EUR/USD off its earlier high at 1.0860 and back underneath 1.0850. The move higher in those yields and the USD/JPY has also sent gold down to a fresh session low underneath $2,030. The USD/JPY is currently trading at 150.73 just as the US stock markets prepare to reopen for the first live session of the week
