US stocks taking a back seat to FX where the dollar is being hiut across-the-baird… no news to trigger the selling

USDJPY UPDATE

• Is the BoJ FX desk working overtime (i.e. intervening) or is the USDJPY fall part of a USD sell-off.
• Whatever the case USDJPY extending its low and while below 158 it is on defense,
• Charts 156.10, 155.55, 154.33 as supports/potential targets.
• Only back above 157.30-40 would deflect the risk,
