The US Dollar Index (DX) declined by 0.6 percent in the yesterdays trading session on the back of rise in risk appetite in the global market sentiments in the early part of the trade which led to fall in demand for the low yielding currency. However, sharp downside in the currency was cushioned on account of expectations that US Federal Reserve will end its bond buying program soon. Further, weak US equities markets also prevented sharp fall in the DX. The currency touched an intra-day low of 83.8 and closed at 83.84 on Monday.
