Trump threatens to permanently close Mexico border if necessary

Trump tweets are alive and kicking on the day

The tweet reads:

"Mexico should move the flag waving Migrants, many of whom are stone cold criminals, back to their countries. Do it by plane, do it by bus, do it anyway you want, but they are NOT coming into the U.S.A. We will close the Border permanently if need be. Congress, fund the WALL!"

This is of course in relation to the news here earlier in the day: US shuts its border with Mexico (San Diego / Tijuana)

Geopolitical tensions aren't exactly a good thing for risk so keep an eye out on developments here as it may put a tiny dent on sentiment. USD/JPY starts to inch a little lower to 113.17 from 113.20 levels.
