The dollar is currently little changed against the euro and the yen, modestly higher against the British pound, and lower against the commodity currencies."Given the holiday today, there's just a general lack of overall interest," said George Davis, chief technical analyst for foreign exchange at RBC Capital Markets in Toronto.The dollar had appreciated broadly on Thursday after weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs data for June revived concerns about the economic outlook and triggered a renewed aversion to risk, a market stance that tends to benefit the dollar against most other currencies.Overnight, the euro broke below $1.4000, a move that triggered stop loss activity that in turn propelled the European currency to a low around $1.3930, Davis said.
