The U.S. dollar fell against its major counterparts in the Asian
session on Wednesday, as the progress in vaccine rollouts and
growing hopes of a U.S. stimulus underpinned risk sentiment.
Hopes that U.S. President Joe Biden's $1.9 trillion covid relief
package will be passed soon without Republican support kept the
dollar under pressure.
Investors hope for a faster recovery in economic activity led by
U.S. stimulus, vaccine rollouts and strong corporate earnings.
