The yen fell against the dollar on Monday in calmer currency market trading after volatile moves last week, while investors weighed the odds of a deep Fed interest rate cut next month ahead of a slew of U.S. economic data.

The respite follows a tumultuous week that began with a massive sell-off across currencies and stock markets, driven by worries over the U.S. economy and the Bank of Japan's hawkishness. Last week ended calmer, with Thursday's stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs data leading markets to pare bets for Federal Reserve rate cuts this year.
