XE Market Analysis: North America – Sep 28, 2015

The dollar has been mixed in early-week trade, losing ground to an outperforming yen while posting fractional gains versus the euro, and holding at near net-unchanged levels in the cases against the Aussie and Canadian dollars. There was a sense of markets hunkering down ahead of a busy data week, which will include the release of PMI surveys from key global economies and culminates with the September U.S. payrolls report on Friday. USD-JPY fell to a 120.01 low, the lowest level traded since last Thursday and over 1% down on Friday’s peak.
