  • Poor Chinese data and deteriorating investors’ sentiment likely to keep demand for the Yen intact.
     
  • Data released earlier showed China Caixin Manufacturing PMI stood at 48.6 vs. 49.2 expected and 49.2 last.
     
  • Data from Japan were better than expected. Japan Nikkei manufacturing PMI climbed from previous 47.8 to 48.1 in June.
