The USD is firmer in early Asia with haven flows, due to widespread protests in China

I posted the early indications here:

• Monday morning open levels - indicative forex rates - 28 November 2022

The USD is firmer, with yen not too far behind due to China news over the weekend:

• COVID - Protests erupt across China: "Step down, Xi Jinping! Step down, Communist Party!"

So far there is no 'gap fill', the USD remains bid. Its still early in Asia of course. Trade is underway in New Zealand and Australia but it only just going to 7am in Japan and 6am in Singapore and Hong Kong.
