The formidable rally of the U.S. dollar appeared to lose momentum on Wednesday as traders exercised caution ahead of a crucial consumer inflation report from the U.S., causing hesitancy in the markets.

The dollar steadied in early Asian trading after an overnight fall, retreating from a two-year high. A subdued U.S. producer price report contributed to falling Treasury yields.

With the euro and sterling under pressure, the market's keen focus on U.S. President-elect Trump's policy plans, particularly anticipated inflation impacts, continues to influence the dollar's trajectory.
