FOREX-Dollar droops, Aussie jumps after inflation data

The dollar nursed its wounds on Wednesday following big tumbles against the euro and sterling, but the yen remained mired near 34-year lows even as Japanese officials stepped up intervention warnings. The dollar's broad overnight losses were driven by a combination of surprisingly robust European activity data and cooling U.S. business growth. The Australian dollar made the most of a weakened greenback and rallied in early Asian trade on Tuesday, helped by hotter-than-expected consumer price data.
