Dollar set for best week since November on US rates, economic outlook

By Rae Wee SINGAPORE () -The dollar was on track for its best weekly performance in over a month on Friday, underpinned by expectations of fewer Federal Reserve rate cuts this year and the view that the U.S. economy will continue to outperform the rest of its peers globally.
