The euro hit its lowest level since June 23 against the dollar, falling as much as 0.5% and trading near $1.1543. Investors reassessed the US-EU trade deal, which critics say favours the US, and some euro positions were liquidated.
Euro-zone leaders, including France and Germany, criticised the deal.
A stronger dollar supports US-priced commodities for import-dependent buyers in Europe and lowers the cost of US feed ingredients. The move reflects currency positioning more than a change in commodity supply.
