Dollar hits one-month low in Tokyo on US political uncertainty

TOKYO, July 24 (KUNA) -- The US Dollar fell to a one-month low against the Japanese Yen into the upper JPY 110 range on Monday here amid political uncertainty in the US.
At 3:30 pm (0630 GMT), the Dollar traded at JPY 111.12-13 compared with JPY 111.10-20 in New York and JPY 111.74-75 in Tokyo at 5 pm Friday.
The Dollar slid to JPY 110.77 at one point in the morning, its lowest level since June 16.
The political uncertainty in Washington continued to weigh over the Dollar following the White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer's abrupt resignation last week after opposing President Donald Trump's appointment of Anthony Scaramucci as communications director. (end) mk.hb
