Tokyo - The dollar struggled to recover on Thursday after diving on comments from the US Federal Reserve that cooled expectations of an early summer interest rate hike.
In Tokyo, the dollar briefly fell below ¥120 before ticking up to ¥120.22 by midday, well down from ¥121.35 level in Tokyo before the US central bank's announcement.
The euro changed hands at $1.0809 and ¥129.92, down from $1.0871 and ¥130.54 in New York but still well above $1.0595 and ¥128.57 in Asia on Wednesday.
