[MARKET ANALYSIS] DXY slightly pulled back after rallying last Friday on Warsh's hawkish message at Jackson Hole

DXY: -0.1%

• Marginally softened to start the week in a slight pullback from last Friday's peak after rallying on hawkish comments from Fed Chair Warsh at Jackson Hole, in which he noted that inflation remains a greater concern than employment and that the Fed has more work to do unless progress towards its 2% inflation target resumes. Nonetheless, weekend drivers for the US were relatively quiet aside from the geopolitical escalation in the Middle East after the US struck missile launchers on Larak Island and Iran retaliated on US bases in Jordan.

EUR/USD: +0.1%

• Bounced off a weekly low although the rebound is limited with the single currency remaining beneath the 1.1600 handle, while recent pertinent headlines include comments from ECB's Kocher on Friday who noted threats to price stability, and it was also reported that Iceland rejected EU accession talks in a referendum on Saturday.

GBP/USD: +0.1%

• Attempts to nurse some losses, but with price action contained with participants in the world's largest FX trading hub away on Monday for the UK Summer Bank Holiday.

USD/JPY: -0.2%

• Trickled lower as the dollar pared some of the Jackson Hole strength and following the better-than-expected Japanese Industrial Production and Retail Sales data.

Antipodeans: AUD/USD +0.1% / NZD/USD +0.1%

• Attempt to recoup some lost ground but with efforts limited by disappointing data for Australia, weaker-than-previous Business Confidence in New Zealand, and continued contraction in Chinese official PMIs.
