The dollar index (DXY00) Friday fell by -0.21%. The dollar came under pressure Friday on an easing of safe-haven demand after Reuters reported that the Iranian government said it is ready to discuss limitations on its uranium enrichment levels. Also, President Trump said he is willing to give diplomacy more time and won't decide to strike Iran for another two weeks.
In addition, dovish comments Friday from Fed Governor Waller weighed on the dollar when he said, "I think we have room to bring interest rates down as early as July, and then we can see kind of see what happens with inflation." The dollar remained lower on the weaker-than-expected Philadelphia Fed business outlook report.
