The dollar index rebounded by 0.47% on Thursday and remained elevated after U.S. weekly continuing jobless claims rose less than expected, indicating a stronger labor market.


However, the dollar's gains were limited after the U.S. manufacturing PMI fell to an 8-month low of 48 points. The PMI's drop below 50 also reflects a contraction in the manufacturing sector, which could impact demand in the metal industry.
