JPY is steady, fading Asian session gains
"The yen is entering Wednesday’s NA session flat vs. the USD with a notable pullback from Asian session highs that had seen gains reach nearly 0.4% at their peak. Sentiment remains a dominant driver in the absence of domestic releases, as the yen continues to trade inversely to equity indices reflecting its role as a safe haven currency."
"For USD/JPY, we look to a near-term range bound between 153 and 154."
