The dollar index fell about 4% in a single week, one of the largest weekly drops in its history. The decline reflected a short squeeze after dollar ownership had been crowded, combined with softer U.S. core CPI and Chinese support measures.
Analysts see the correction possibly extending to around 105 from 106.90.
A sharp dollar decline lowers the local-currency cost of U.S. feed commodities for importers and can lift dollar-denominated prices, though the move may be partly positioning-driven and reverse.
