US media reports that President Trump has decided to fire US National Security Adviser McMaster fired were seized upon, USD/JPY taken down:
Denial of the report has seen little retrace (so far at least). Given the turmoil in the White House its hardly surprising the market is prepared to quickly jump on reports of more chaos and to treat statement from there as b/s.
Hope y'all made some tics!
