DLRx 101.75 / 10-yr 3.846 at 11.12nyt
Concensus says nothing more important this week than Fr’s NFP for market to re-asses FED,s expected rate action on sept 18th which, sofar, have not changed.
In reference to current DLRx’s enthusiasm: puppy s showing a (little) bit of leg and may continue to bounce a little more higher still. But … the dollar is subject to us int rates which, under current market mood, are a counter weight.

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan
Wall Street gets September off to a late start with a holiday- shortened week that focusses squarely on the U.S. jobs market after last month’s unemployment rate scare sparked a mini panic.
Critical to that thinking will be the August payrolls report on Friday, with consensus forecasts for a pick-up in jobs growth to 160,000 last month and a retreat in the jobless rate to 4.2%.
Before then we get a whole heap of other labor market soundings – private sector surveys and layoffs data for August, July job opening numbers and another weekly jobless readout.

USDJPY 4 HOUR CHART – TYPICAL FALSE START?

As I noted in the Weekly FX Chart Outlook
Note the start of a new quarter and post-summer often sees false starts and whipsaws until market settle on a theme and recover full liquidity.
Well, there was one already in USDJPY after it failed to reach 147.34 (high 14t.20) as has since back off.
Catalyst: Weaker equities (risk off)
This ;leaves 145 as the ultimate bias setter in a market that will keep an eye as to whether this correlation continues.
