The rupee failed to sustain rising trend against the dollar on the money market on Friday in process of trading activity, dealers said.
In the final Asian trade, the yen traded near an eight month high versus the dollar on Friday as renewed concerns about the US-China trade dispute and signs that central banks are more worried about the global economy boosted safe-haven assets.
The yen, which tends to be bought in times of economic uncertainty, was on course for its second weekly gain versus the greenback and its third weekly gain versus both the Australian and New Zealand dollars.
The dollar was little changed at 105.98 yen, on course for its second weekly decline. On Wednesday, the dollar slumped to 105.50 yen, the lowest since the January flash crash. A break of this level suggests a move to 105.00 yen, analysts said.
The dollar index, which measures the greenback versus a basket of six major currencies, was little changed at 97.548 but on course for its biggest weekly decline since June 21.
The dollar was trading against the Indian rupee at Rs 70.515, the greenback was at 4.186 in terms of the Malaysian ringgit and the US currency was available at 7.050 versus the Chinese yuan.
