EURINR can test support at 106 and bounce back towards 109-110. EURJPY has support near 180 from where a rebound can take the pair back to 184/186 in the medium term while USDJPY can fall towards support near 151 before rebounding to 156. USDCNY can drift toward crucial support at 6.85. The Aussie can target 0.7150-0.7200 while the Pound needs to sustain above 1.37 to head toward 1.38+ levels.

The US Treasury yields have risen back well after the jobs data release. The US added 130K jobs to its NFP. The unemployment rate fell to 4.3% from 4.4%. If the bounce in the yields sustain, further rise is possible. Broadly, the yields can oscillate in a range and can move up within it. The German yields have come down to their supports as expected. Failure to bounce back from here can drag them further lower from here. The 10Yr GoI is also at its intermediate support. We expect a rise from here. However, a little extended fall cannot be avoided before the expected rise happens in case the yield breaks the support from here. We will have to wait and watch.
