The U.S. dollar little changed this morning after climbing against most major currencies on Wednesday. Positive data on the U.S. economy and comments from Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen and New York Federal Reserve Bank President William Dudley supported the dollar. Yellen said that the U.S. economy is likely to continue making substantial progress and that a liftoff in rates in December is "a live possibility". William Dudley agreed with her point of view. Most of all greenback rose against the euro and the yen because these two currencies are facing risks of monetary policy easing by the ECB and Bank of Japan.

At the beginning of the session the Australian dollar declined amid comments from RBA Governor Glenn Stevens, but rebounded later. He said if policy were to change, it would almost certainly be an easing.

Today market participants will be focused on Bank of England minutes and BOE Governor Mark Carney's speech.

EUR/USD: the pair fluctuated within $1.0855-75 in Asian trade

USD/JPY: the pair fell to Y121.40

GBP/USD: the pair traded within $1.5375-95
