The U.S. dollar fell against most major currencies on June 20, 2019 after the Fed kept rates at 2.50% but signaled possible future cuts. The dollar index dropped 0.5% to 96.6 points.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said most members supported a cut before year-end.
Signals of future Fed easing put downward pressure on the dollar, which tends to support dollar-priced feed commodities. The impact depends on whether the cuts actually materialize and on trade-war developments.
