RTRS: Dollar falls versus yen after jobs data; euro tumbles
The dollar dropped against the yen, and the euro tumbled on Friday after data showed U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose by only 18,000 in June, the weakest reading since September and well below economists' expectations.
The dollar fell as low as 80.71 yen on Reuters data following the news, compared with 81.45 yen earlier. It was last down 0.5 percent at 80.83 yen.
The euro briefly tumbled 1 percent to a session low of $1.4204 as the jobs data dented risk appetite. It was last at $1.4262, down 0.7 percent on the day.
