THE US dollar rose to its highest since February against the yen on Monday as US bond yields climbed on the back of expectations of broadly higher inflation, driven by a 5 per cent rise in global oil prices.
The Norwegian crown and Canadian dollar were the other big gainers after Opec and non-Opec producers struck their first deal since 2001 to curtail output jointly, driving crude prices to their highest levels in a year and a half.
