Dollar-EuroLONDON: The euro fell to a five-week low versus the dollar on Thursday as a shakeout in commodity markets prompted investors to dump higher-yielding assets and seek relative safety of the greenback.

The euro fell to $1.4135 according to EBS data, its lowest since April 1, to trade with losses of around 0.4 percent on the day.

Traders reported decent demand in the $1.4130 area which may limit further falls in the common currency.
