NEW YORK (Reuters) - The dollar pared losses against a basket of currencies on Monday, after news that Republican leaders in the U.S. Senate had rounded up enough votes to move a stopgap funding bill that would end a government shutdown.
The U.S. government shutdown took effect at midnight on Friday after Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on a last-minute deal to fund government operations.
On Monday, Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer said the government would reopen in a "few hours."
The dollar index (DXY), which tracks the greenback against six major currencies, was down 0.04 percent to 90.538, after falling as low as 90.155 earlier in the session.
The greenback jumped to a four-day high of 111.22 yen against the Japanese currency.
