The dollar was up on Tuesday morning in Asia. The safe-haven asset clawed back some of its overnight losses, and the yen also strengthened, as U.S. stock futures fell following a profit warning from Snapchat.

The U.S. currency clawed back its losses after Monday’s 0.85% fall, which took it further from the nearly two-decade peak above 105 hit during the middle of the month. The dollar did, however, slip against the Japanese yen.

Across the Atlantic, the euro retreated 0.21% to $1.0672, although it barely dented Monday’s 1.17% surge, after European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said policymakers were likely to lift the euro area deposit rate out of negative territory by the end of September 2022.
