Evergreen buck keeps to October minimums
On Friday, the greenback kept to its lowest value for October versus its key opponents because diving American treasury gains as well as further dips on Wall Street affected market sentiment.

A weaker-than-predicted ascend in American consumer prices undermined the evergreen buck because market participants cut back their wagers on the key US bank increasing the tempo of its planned rate lifts.
The previous months Fed representatives told that they hoped for up to three rate lifts next year, and some told that they are ready for a rate lift already in December that would be the fourth in 2018.Additionally, the benchmark 10-year Treasury gain went down to 3.1705% having slumped to a seven-year maximum of 3.261% on Tuesday.
The common currency happened to be the key beneficiary of broad-based US dollar weakness, reaching a new weekly maximum at 1.1611 due to a weakening greenback and an upbeat tone in minutes of the recent European Central Bank gathering.
According to the minutes, the ECB was on track to have its ultra-loose monetary policy normalized in 2018 notwithstanding fears about decelerating surge in the EU.
Meanwhile, the Canadian dollar ended up with 1.3024.
In October, the evergreen buck has rallied nearly 1% against its Canadian counterpart.
