Dec 10-year T-notes on Monday posted a fresh 2-week high and closed higher on carry-over support from a rally in 10-year German bunds to a 1-3/4 month high and on increased safe-haven demand from geopolitical tensions in the Middle East after Saudi Arabia said an attempted missile attack on Riyadh's airport could be an act of war by Iran.

The dollar index (DXY00 +0.36%) this morning is up +0.284 (+0.30%) at a 1-week high. EUR/USD (^EURUSD) is down -0.0042 (-0.36%) at a 3-1/2 month low and USD/JPY (^USDJPY) is up +0.45 (+0.40%).

The dollar was also undercut by the decline in the 10-year T-note yield to a 2-week low, which undercuts the dollar's interest rate differentials.
