New York [US], June 13: The US dollar was little changed in Friday trading but remained on track for a weekly loss as markets monitored global geopolitical and economic developments.

The dollar rose 0.18 percent against the Japanese yen to 160.225 yen, while sterling was unchanged at US$1.34145.
The US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback against a basket of major currencies, was steady at 99.75 after falling to a one-week low in the previous session.
In cryptocurrency markets, Bitcoin gained 0.4 percent to US$63,595, while Ethereum declined 0.29 percent to US$1,666.
