Forex: USD/JPY slips back below 99.00

FXstreet.com (Córdoba) - The dollar saw a quick drop below 99.00 and retested daily lows against the yen in a sudden spike of risk aversion. USD/JPY fell to a low of 98.82 but found support once again and quickly bounced to the 99.10 area, where the 20-hour SMA acted as dynamic resistance.
