FX flows are -20% vs Friday and -18% vs the five-day average, with a bias to sell USDs from macro-directional, real money and retail names.
In G10,the standout net directional flow is USDJPY selling from retail names, which was partially offset by macro-directional buying interest. We also saw macros selling AUDUSD. The spot desk notes that in the near-term they expect AUD to remain somewhat driven by broad USD sentiment ahead of the US CPI data due this week.
In EM we saw broad-based USD selling vs SGD, CNH, TWD, THB and HKD, with the only exception being USDKRW, with macro names better buyers on the day.
