NEW YORK, Jan 3 (Reuters) - The dollar index pared losses Wednesday after the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged and dropped a longstanding reference to possible further hikes in borrowing costs.
The U.S. central bank's latest policy statement, however, gave no hint that a rate cut was imminent. It said the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee "does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2%," the Fed's inflation target.
The dollar index =USD was last flat on the day at 103.39. The euro EUR=EBS was last down 0.16% on the day at $1.08275. The greenback pared losses against the yen and was last down 0.66% on the day at 146.72 yen JPY=EBS .
