USD/JPY - 112.00.. The pair maintains a firm undertone in early Asian trading following Friday's resumption of recent upmove to a 4-week high of 112.09 in New York as rebound in U.S. yields together with strong performance in U.S. stocks boosted risk appetite and led to broad-based selling in the safe-haven yen.
Dlr's intra-day strength vs the yen only but weak against its other G7 peers suggests price would penetrate 2019 peak at 112.14 (March) soon where a break there would encourage for subsequent headway towards 112.67.
