Current Account narrowed more than expected. Chinese inflation missed expectations weighing on the morning session. Japan posted a current account surplus for the 15th straight month in September as the trade balance swung to a surplus, Ministry of Finance data showed on Tuesday.
The current account surplus stood at 1.47 trillion yen ($11.95 billion), up from a 978.0 billion yen surplus in September last year. The median forecast was for 2.2 trillion yen.
The euro erased an advances amid speculation the European Central Bank is moving closer toward cutting its deposit rate when it meets next month.
