The Dollar Index stood at 102.1 on the morning of Oct. 12, slightly lower from last week but still near the 18-month high set a few days earlier, as Middle East tensions and oil prices kept the dollar elevated. The greenback fell 0.14% against the yen to 158.1 per dollar, while the euro rose 0.1% after five straight sessions of declines, with trading thin due to a Japanese holiday. Investors are awaiting this week's U.S. CPI data, with markets pricing an 81% chance the Fed holds rates steady in October. Barclays sees the dollar's rally possibly pausing in the short term, while Commonwealth Bank of Australia warned that further Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabian energy infrastructure could push oil and the dollar higher. In Vietnam, Vietcombank quoted USD buy-sell rates at 25,660-26,070 dong, unchanged from last week.
