The dollar headed for its best weekly performance in a month on Friday, as investors priced in the possibility of the Federal Reserve cutting rates more slowly next year, while sterling fell after a surprise contraction in UK economic activity.
The U.S. currency held firm against the euro and Swiss franc following rate cuts by those central banks a day earlier, and rose against the yen after reports that the Bank of Japan could forgo a rate hike at its meeting next week.
The dollar index, which measures the currency against six others, was flat at 106.94, but still set for a weekly gain of nearly 1%, its biggest in a month.
