0001 GMT - Asian currencies consolidate against the dollar in early trade, but may be buoyed by reduced Fed rate-hike prospects. Expectations for a Fed rate increase in September were lowered following the weak U.S. nonfarm payrolls report released Friday, StoneX's Matt Simpson says in commentary. "Fed fund futures now imply a 57% of no rate change in September, from a 54% chance of a hike before" the report, the senior market analyst notes. The U.S. dollar is steady at 1,407.80 won and is little changed at 6.7432 offshore yuan, while the Australian dollar edges 0.1% lower to US$0.7061, LSEG data show.
