The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against six major rivals, fell 0.42 percent to 89.425 on Monday on hopes that a U.S.-led strike on Syria would not lead to escalation, rekindling some appetite for stocks and other risky assets and spurring investors to reduce safe-haven holdings of the greenback. The euro was up 0.40 percent to 1.2378 against the greenback. Against the yen, the dollar inched down 0.21 percent at 107.10. The euro is expected to meet resistance and support against the dollar at $1.2530 and $1.2220 respectively, while the dollar is expected to meet resistance and support against the yen at 108.60 and 105.50 respectively.
