The yen approached the closely watched 150 per dollar level on Monday and kept traders on intervention watch after the Bank of Japan and Governor Kazuo Ueda quashed hopes of any imminent move away from its stark ultra-loose monetary policy.
The pound was headed for a more than 3% fall in September, its worst monthly performance in a year.
"Central banks in the UK, the Euro area, and Japan have 'turned tail'. They're now testing the thesis that their slowing economies portend a defeat of the inflation impulse, or that the slowdowns are serious enough to no longer wish to tempt the fates with more tightening," said Thierry Wizman, Macquarie's global FX and interest rates strategist.
"And because the U.S. has yet to display the growth infirmities of the rest of the world, the U.S. stands apart, and the Fed has signalled that it can tempt fate."further rate hikes ahead even after the central bank chose to keep rates on hold at last week's policy meeting, with markets now seeing a roughly 21% chance of a 25-basis-point increase at November's meeting. .
The dollar index , which on Friday touched an over six-month high, firmed at 105.57 in early Asia trade. The Aussie gained 0.06% to $0.6445 while the New Zealand dollar fell 0.05% to $0.5958, after touching a roughly three-week high of $0.6001 earlier in the session.
