The euro rose 0.52 percent to $1.0958 after falling in the previous two sessions, after the European Commission proposed imposing 25 percent retaliatory tariffs on a range of US imports. The move is seen as a direct response to tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on EU steel and aluminum. The new tariffs will be applied in two phases. Some items will be taxed from May 16, while others will be taxed from December 1. The list of taxed items is diverse, including diamonds, eggs, dental floss, sausages, poultry, almonds and soybeans.

However, the Japanese yen and Swiss franc continued to benefit from safe-haven demand, as investors remained concerned about the possibility of a global recession.

Meanwhile, markets are bracing for a trade war between the US and China. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told US senators that the Trump administration will not back down on its trade strategy anytime soon.

The Chinese yuan hit its lowest level since it began trading in 2010, at 7.3815 yuan per dollar. The currency closed the session down 1.05% against the greenback, at 7.423 yuan per dollar.

The dollar fell 1 percent to 146.30 yen against the Japanese yen and fell 1.48 percent to 0.84780 franc against the Swiss franc.

The greenback has underperformed against other currencies, in part due to concerns about a recession in the face of tariffs, said Marvin Loh, senior global market strategist at State Street in Boston.

The DXY index fell 0.35% to 102.91.

The index has fallen about 0.7% since US President Donald Trump announced the tariffs on April 2, prompting investors to weigh the impact of the series of policies on the US economy.

The greenback's decline may be partly due to a recovery in stock markets in some parts of Asia, said Juan Perez, head of trading at Monex USA.
