TOKYO: The dollar took a breather in Asia on Thursday but remained near a 3-1/2-month high against a basket of currencies hit in the wake of Britain´s stunning vote to exit from the European Union, while the battered sterling continued to struggle.
The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six major rivals, edged up 0.1 percent to 95.836 , on track for a monthly loss of 0.1 percent. While the U.S. currency mostly benefited from the massive wave of risk aversion that crashed over global markets after the Brexit vote, fading expectations of a U.S. interest rates this year have stolen some of its thunder. Interest rate futures suggested traders saw the Fed holding policy steady - or even cutting rates - through at least early 2018.The dollar index rose as high as 96.705 on Monday, when the pound plumbed 31-year lows after the results of the UK vote on Friday. Sterling was down 0.2 percent at $1.3395, well above Monday´s nadir of $1.3122 but still poised to lose more than seven percent for the month. Sterling "has come a long way, and there is still a lot of uncertainty," said Sue Trinh, senior currency strategist at RBC Capital Markets in Hong Kong.
