The yen falls against some major currencies after the U.S. Treasury Department
drops its designation of China as a currency manipulator ahead of U.S. and China
signing phase-one of the trade deal on Wednesday. The U.S. Treasury's removal of
the currency manipulator label is somewhat a "positive surprise" to the markets,
Commerzbank says. The USD/JPY rose above 110 this morning on the strong risk
tone, Commerzbank says, noting the pair hasn't traded above that level since May
2019. USD/JPY is up 0.1% at 110.09, EUR/JPY is up 0.2% at 122.58 and AUD/JPY is
little changed at 75.88.
