DOLLAR: USD registers losses across the G10 currency board after taking a blow
from Fed Vice Chair Clarida's dovish comments. Clarida noted that
weaker-than-exp. inflation means that the Fed can afford to be patient & that if
crosswinds for the U.S. econ persist, policy should respond. Clarida also noted
that the Fed shouldn't hesitate to adjust its balance sheet roll off if needed.
