It's been a quiet start to the week for Asia-Pac, with very little market-moving news and very little price action to get excited about.

Equities: futures started the week on the softer side with marginal downside seen in equity futures (mostly across the board), but have since regained some composure albeit we are still down on the session.

Commodities: Commodities are trading mixed with WTI and Brent close to fat, while Natgas is lower. Base metals (copper and iron ore) are both down close to half a percent, while precious metals are mixed with gold and silver higher while platinum is down.

Bonds: Mostly higher but marginal moves so far with yields still relatively close to the lows seen last week.

FX: The CHF is the strongest while the AUD is the weakest this morning, but catalysts for the moves are very thin as mentioned. We saw some of the same-old currency jawboning from Japanese officials which has kept the JPY marginally supported, but markets have watched this movie so many times. Intervention will be on everyone's minds this week as USDJPY trades close to 160.
