The FX market largely treaded water in Wednesday's trade but there was a notable intraday reversal in USD/JPY lower after hitting the highest in two weeks. That came as US yields fell and closed at the lows of the day.

As for the dollar, it's been strong so far in July but there were cracks today. I think those cracks widened a bit with this attack on Brazilian trade, despite Brazil having a trade deficit with the US. It highlights Trump's knee-jerk instincts to hit everyone with tariffs for anything and that 'reciprocal' is effectively meaningless.

In the meantime, I will keep a close eye on how the dollar performs in the day ahead. Also keep an eye on bitcoin for signs of risk sentiment. It attacked $112K and got within dollars of breaking it but backed off late.
