On Friday, the dollar rose to a 13-year high against the yen and strengthened its position against the euro after the employment figures were better than expected.
The US Labor Department reported that the US economy added 280 thousand jobs in May, higher than the expected 220 thousand. The unemployment rate rose to 5.5% from 5.4% the previous month.
The April figure was revised up to 221 thousand.
The level of hourly wages rose in May by 0.3% after increasing 0.2% in April.
The positive data, in particular the acceleration of wage growth, supported the speculation that the economy will show a rebound after weak growth in the first quarter, and strengthened expectations that the Federal Reserve may start raising interest rates at its policy meeting in September.
After the release of the data, the dollar strengthened against other major currencies.
