The greenback surged overnight against its peers and held to those gains in early Asia trade, pushing the Japanese yen away from a roughly two-week high hit in the previous session.The euro hobbled just above parity at $1.0016, some distance from its near-two-month high hit earlier in the week.

Both had fallen over 1% overnight.
