The dollar index (DXY00) Friday gave up an early advance and finished slightly lower by -0.07%. The dollar was under pressure Friday after the University of Michigan U.S. Nov consumer sentiment fell more than expected to a 6-month low. Also, Friday’s rally in the S&P 500 to a 7-week high reduced liquidity demand for the dollar.
The University of Michigan U.S. Nov consumer sentiment index fell -3.4 to a 6-month low of 60.4, weaker than expectations of 63.7.
