  • USD drifting lower heading into Tokyo open

    The USD is uniformly lower early in the session and it is difficult to see where the buy-dollar signals are going to come from. Order books are fairly clear in the EUR/USD until 1.4200-10 where some Sovereign offers are touted. There is also said to be good selling interest in the AUD/USD at .8250...
