The dollar index has declined by 0.16% as expectations of a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve solidify following a weaker-than-expected August PPI report. Initial gains in the dollar from increased safe-haven demand amid rising geopolitical tensions in Europe were overshadowed by concerns regarding Fed independence and heightened speculation of multiple rate cuts by year-end. Meanwhile, the euro gained slightly after the weaker dollar and geopolitical tensions in the region, while precious metals saw price increases due to safe-haven buying.
