Globally the U.S. dollar rebounded on Friday after data showed the world's largest economy created a lot more jobs than expected last month, suggesting that the Federal Reserve could take time in starting its easing cycle this year, Reuters reported.
The dollar index, which tracks the currency's value against six major peers led by the euro, rose 0.8% to 104.91, its best daily gain since April 10.
For the week, the index was on track for a 0.2% gain, with the strong jobs number offsetting a run of weaker macro data that had earlier prompted investors to put two quarter-point Fed rate cuts back on the table in 2024.
