MoF Hirohisa Fujii, who was absent at G20 but will meet US Treasury Sec Tim Geithner in Tokyo this week, says US wants to strengthen USD by increasing its savings rate in its economy. Sec Geithner message for Japan is not too focus too much on exports. On FX, USD/JPY little changed at 90.08-11 on Fujii comments, with interest still to buy Cross/JPY, JPY carry on dips post G20/ IMF comments and also on back of firmer commodities, led by Gold and Aussie, and GBP on back of Kraft/Cadbury M+A talks. EUR bids at 1.4935-40, talks of options barriers/ DNT at 1.4950, and more at the psychological 1.5000 again, bids at 1.49 lows. WL
