2017-10-17 TUESDAY The dollar edged up against its peers in the opening trades today, supported by a rise in Treasury yields following a report that U.S. President Donald Trump was favoring a policy hawk as the next head of the Federal Reserve. Treasury yields bounced from two-week lows and rose after a report yesterday that President Trump was favoring Stanford economist John Taylor, seen as more hawkish than current Chair Janet Yellen, to head the Fed. The dollar was under pressure as Treasury yields declined last week. But it was allowed to rebound as a stronger Wall Street, good U.S. data, and the report about Taylor all came into place to stop the yield decline. The euro likely holds the key to whether the dollar can remain firm. The European Central Bank is now considered less hawkish than the market had initially thought last month, pushing German bund yields lower and in turn favoring the dollar against the euro. The greenback was 0.1 percent lower at 112.070 yen, after rising 0.3 percent overnight, when it pulled away from a three-week low of 111.650, while Sterling slipped 0.1 percent to $1.3241, awaiting Bank of England Governor Mark Carney\'s comments due later in the session for potential cues. The Indian Rupee opened weaker and with a with a gap of 05 paisa at 64.79/80 against its previous session’s closing of 64.74/75 and is expected to trade in 64.60/65.00 ranges today |
