The U.S. dollar edged up against most currencies and U.S. bond futures slipped on Monday following an assassination attempt on U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump. The attack has increased Trump's election odds, adding a new level of political uncertainty. Treasuries slipped and the dollar firmed as markets grappled with the political fallout. The market reaction saw Dow futures edge higher, while thin trading due to a Japanese holiday resulted in modest dollar gains.
