• USD/CNH last 6.7937, tad higher than Monday but a bit shaky
• Would be new lowest since Mar 2023 if below yesterday's 6.7901
• Sudden but brief USD/JPY dip to 156.74 revives intervention fears
• Traders may pre-empt another drop, trigger a pullback in USD/AXJ
• But for now, higher UST yields ahead of US CPI support dollar
• Possible disappointment at inflation data poses a risk for
USD longs
