In the second Asian trade, the yen rose on Tuesday as some investors tempered their optimism about the chances for a quick resolution to the U.S.-China trade war, which boosted so-called risk-off trades.
Global markets have been whipsawed by dramatic twists in the trade dispute this month. U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday flagged the possibility of a trade deal with China, days after both sides announced new tariffs.
The dollar was trading against the Indian rupee at Rs 71.805, the US currency was at 4.206 versus the Malaysian ringgit and the greenback was available at 7.161 in terms of the Chinese yuan.
