    Singapore: The US dollar began the month of December on a softer trajectory as investors increased their expectations of a potential interest rate cut by the US Federal Reserve later this month.

    Against a basket of major currencies, the dollar index slipped by 0.05% to 99.39, extending last week’s 0.7% decline.

    The Japanese yen continued its upward momentum, strengthening by 0.4% to a session high of 155.49 per dollar, supported by comments from Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda, who signaled the possibility of a near-term interest rate hike.

    The euro edged higher by 0.04% to $1.1605, while the British pound traded at $1.3239, after recording its strongest weekly performance in more than three months on Friday.

    The Australian dollar rose 0.08% to $0.6553, whereas the New Zealand dollar remained largely stable at $0.5738.
