The markets experienced a mixed start for Asian currencies as the US dollar rose close to its highest level in 18 months, while the euro fell to a 17-month low, buoyed by rising US Treasury yields. The dollar index remained stable around 102.11 after reaching a high of 102.21. Meanwhile, the EUR/USD pair declined to 1.123, and the British pound increased to 1.3224.
