Globally the dollar ceded some ground on Thursday as markets warmed up to the idea the Federal Reserve is likely to stay on its aggressive rate-hike path, after minutes from its last policy meeting reinforced the central bank's hawkish rhetoric, Reuters reported.
The dollar retreated from its multi-week highs against some of its major peers in Asia trade, after a broad gain in the previous session, following the release of the minutes.
The euro rose 0.13% to $1.0618, away from its roughly seven-week trough of $1.0598 hit in the previous session.
The Aussie gained 0.26% to $0.6823, having similarly slid to a near seven-week low of $0.6795 on Wednesday, further pressured by a miss in forecasts for Australian wage growth last quarter.
