NEW YORK: The dollar trimmed losses against a basket of currencies on Thursday after the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges said China will suspend its new market circuit breaker mechanism, which was tripped for a second time this week.
The suspension of the circuit breaker is seen as a move to instill confidence among investors about the Chinese stock market, whose rout this week has spilled across equities markets worldwide.
The dollar index, which measures the greenback against a group of six currencies, was last down 0.5 percent at 98.722.
