Dollar boosted as U.S. Treasury yields hit 7-year high

The dollar stood tall on Friday against its major peers, including the yen and euro, as investors evaluated the impact of a two-day global government bond rout that has lifted U.S. Treasury yields to seven-year highs.

The dollar rose 0.1 percent to 114.04 yen after coming off an 11-month high of 114.55 yen reached during the previous session. A rise above 114.735 would take the greenback to its highest level since mid-March 2017.

The euro is down about 0.8 percent against the dollar so far this month.
