0246 GMT - The Singapore dollar weakens slightly against its U.S. counterpart on possible position adjustments. "The U.S. dollar is nervous ahead of a potential U.S. government shutdown in a few hours," DBS Group Research's Philip Wee says in commentary. In addition to a delay in this Friday's release of key U.S. jobs data, a shutdown would furlough some 750,000 federal employees, according to estimates by the Congressional Budget Office, the senior forex strategist notes. "Speculation has emerged that the administration could use the shutdown as a cover to permanently trim the federal workforce and align it with Trump's priorities," Wee adds. USD/SGD is 0.1% higher at 1.2910, LSEG data show. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
