USD/JPY - ....... Although the greenback stabilized near New York close after early intra-day selloff from a high of 113.80 (Europe) to as low as 112.61 on dovish remarks from Fed's chair Yellen, price weakened again in Tokyo morning on Wednesday and fell to 112.40.
Intra-day weakness in Asia suggests consolidation with downside bias would be seen but sharp decline is not likely ahead of the release of ADP employment data at 12:15GMT.
In addition, investors should pay close attention to the speech from Chicago Federal Reserve President Charles Evans who recently said he expects two rate hikes this year, given his forecast for 2 percent to 2.5 percent economic growth and for unemployment to fall further to 4.75 percent by the end of the year.
At present, offers are reported at 112.70-80 and mores at 112.90-00 with mixtures of offers and stops in the region of 113.00-113.20.
