    FOREX-Dollar jumps after surprise boost in May payrolls

    Despite strong hiring, the unemployment rate rose to 3.7% from a 53-year low of 3.4% in April. The dollar index, which measures the U.S. currency against six others, was last up 0.435% at 103.980, on track for its largest daily percentage gain since mid-May. On the week, however, the dollar slipped 0.2%, its biggest weekly decline since early May. The dollar index slid 0.62% on Thursday, its worst day in almost a month, after Fed officials signaled the central bank will forgo an interest rate hike this month. "The Fed has painted themselves into a corner with these most recent statements about the need to take a pause, and then maybe look to hike in July, and I think they're going to regret it after today's non-farm payroll number," said Paresh Upadhyaya, director of fixed income and currency strategy at Amundi US.

    Britain supports adding Ukraine to NATO and "that path is open" to them, although political realities may slow the process, Defence Minister Ben Wallace said on Friday on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue security meetings in Singapore.

"The best thing we can do to help Ukraine is now to help them defeat Russia," Wallace said in an interview.

    FOREX-Fed 'skip' chatter triggers dollar's biggest weekly fall since January

    The dollar headed for its largest weekly fall since mid-January on Friday as the view took hold among investors that the Federal Reserve will forgo an interest rate hike this month, which would diminish the greenback's appeal to non-U.S. buyers. The U.S. Senate's passage of a bill to suspend the debt ceiling and avert a disastrous default also removed a pillar of support for the dollar, which had paradoxically been a key beneficiary of the uncertainty because of its safe-haven status. "With the debt ceiling in the rear-view mirror, focus is very much back on central banks and economic data," City Index markets strategist Fiona Cincotta said.
