# Dollar edges up as rate cut outlook remains clouded | Reuters

> The euro fell to $1.1505, its weakest level since August 1, before recovering to about $1.152. The move followed data showing US manufacturing contracted for an eighth straight month in October, with new orders subdued and supplier delivery times lengthening due to tariffs.

## Why it matters

A firmer dollar on weak US manufacturing data is a modest headwind for US export prices and can ease import costs for feed buyers. The effect on grain and meal prices is small compared with trade or weather drivers.
