Catching UpTim Duy
I am keeping an eye on Tarullo; he has been more public on his monetary policy views in recent months. And those views are fairly dovish. My guess is that he and other doves regret taking one for the team last December and falling in line with a rate hike. They won't go down so easily this time around.

FX UpdateTF
The yen remains the weakest currency on the back of the global risk rally and because the market anticipates fiscal stimulus from Japan soon. But the US dollar is also suffering as the Fed is seen as sidelined for now. Top gainers in this environment are EM and commodity currencies particularly the Aussie.

Nintendo shares are flying on the back of the runaway success of its Pokemon Go mobile game but the rally may prove short-lived as expectations outstrip actual value.
