Dollar Falls Ahead of Fed Minutes

The dollar fell as investors turned cautious ahead of the release of the Federal Reserve's July meeting minutes later in the day.

Markets have recently trimmed expectations for Fed interest-rate rises following weak U.S. labor market data and subdued inflation prints.

While Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh has refrained from providing forward guidance, the minutes could provide clues on whether tightening is possible.
