The Dollar Roses

The dollar rose against the pound and yen Monday, but remained flat against the euro as investors weighed the possibility of further rate cuts from the Bank of England as well as market intervention by the Bank of Japan.
U.S. currency was virtually unmoved against the 15-nation euro, which rose 0.04 cents to $1.394. However, the dollar gained against the British pound, which fell 1.3 cents to $1.482, and rose ¥0.98 to ¥90.11 against the Japanese yen.

Over the past year, central banks around the world have been slashing interest rates and taking other measures to keep money flowing through the global economy.
"(These are) some of the most illiquid markets we have ever seen," said Michael Woolfolk, senior currency strategist at Bank of New York Mellon in New York.
