China’s Caixin Services Purchasing Managers Index rose to 54.8 in September, against August’s reading of 54, remaining in positive territory for a fifth consecutive month, suggesting the second largest economy in the world is quickly returning to health. Yuan’s rally and risk-on action look to be weighing over the greenback. A continued rise in the US bond yields could stall the dollar sell-off. Dollar Index was down 0.1% at 93.528, while USD/JPY was down 0.1% at 105.94.
