The United States dollar eased 0.2% to 100.07 on Thursday morning, retreating from its largest jump in three months after a Federal Reserve rate hike. The pullback followed a 0.7% surge in the prior session as Treasury yields eased from earlier highs. Investors are pricing in three more rate increases through late 2027, exceeding the central bank's projections.
