USD/JPY managed to recover some ground at the beginning of the American session and trimmed intraday losses as risk sentiment improved over the last hours.
After hitting a daily low of 112.75, USD/JPY bounced but the upside remained capped by the 113.25 zone, leaving the pair confined to a slim range. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 113.10, still down % on the day.
There is no first-tier data scheduled for the rest of the session, with US will release Chicago PMI for February and pending home sales on tap.
