The dollar has traded firmer for a second day, rebounding from recent underperformance, which had been a reflection of the Fed's aggressive actions to satiate demand for dollars.

The commodity currencies have traded softer, suggesting there is little buy-in to a sustained improvement in global market sentiment, despite gains in stock markets. AUD-USD punched out a four-day low at 0.6079, extending the correction from Friday's two-week high at 0.6202.
