The dollar index , which measures the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, was unchanged at 94.641. The U.S. Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged on Wednesday as expected but characterized the economy as strong, keeping the central bank on track to increase borrowing costs in September.
U.S. short-term interest rates futures were little changed on Wednesday as traders stuck to the view that the Federal Reserve would raise key borrowing costs two more times in 2018 with the next rate hike seen happening at its Sept. 25-26 policy meeting.
