Comment: The USD/JPY pair edged lower through the early European session and dropped to fresh daily lows, around the 110.10 region in the last hour, albeit lacked follow-through. A combination of factors failed to assist the USD/JPY pair to capitalize on the post-NFP positive move to near two-week tops, instead prompted some selling on the first day of a new week. Investors remain worried that the fast-spreading Delta variant of the coronavirus could derail the global economic recovery.
