Dollar falls as post-payrolls rally falters
The dollar fell on Friday, reversing earlier gains made in the wake of a report showing the highest U.S. jobs growth since May, as dealers bet the U.S. economy is still on a slowing path.
The dollar index, a gauge of the greenback's value against a basket of major currencies, fell 0.2 percent from Thursday to 78.332. After the jobs data, the index rose as high as 78.819.
On Monday, it dropped to an all-time low of 77.660.
