LONDON—The dollar headed for its first weekly decline versus major peers since the start of last month on Friday as global risk appetite rebounded, while the Japanese yen headed for a three-year low and the price of bitcoin hit nearly $60,000.
The dollar index slipped 0.1 percent to 93.9 and was down 0.2 percent for the week in what would be its first weekly loss in six weeks. The greenback tends to rise when investors seek safety.
