The European single currency hit a fresh all-time high of $1.3074 against the dollar earlier on Thursday, propped up by speculation that Russia was considering to increase weight of the euro in central bank's foreign exchange reserves....

...Moreover, the U.S. officials reiterated that they did not intend to impose valuations on currencies, meaning they would let the dollar drop further without intervention. Later in the day, the dollar erased some of the losses on position squaring ahead of G20 meeting of finance ministers in Berlin this weekend. Otherwise, the dollar showed muted reaction to U.S. economic data.

Expectations for increased capital inflows related to the upcoming privatization of Cesky Telecom lifted the crown to near four-month highs versus the euro on Thursday. Simultaneously, broad dollar depreciation caused the crown soared to a new record high around 23.900 against the U.S. currency.
