SINGAPORE/LONDON—The dollar fell to an eight-month low against its peers on Thursday, as a gloomy U.S. corporate earnings season stoked recession fears ahead of a slew of central bank meetings next week

The euro squeezed its way to a new nine-month high of $1.09295 and was last just below that level, little changed on the day. Sterling was up 0.15 percent to $1.2419, mounting a new bid on territory above $1.245 having failed to get there last week.
