Meanwhile, sterling continues to rally, hitting a two-week high to trade at $1.42.<\/p>\n<p>The dollar dropped against a basket of six major currencies, down to 89.58, edging closer to 89.54, its lowest level since 28 March. The currency fell 0.3 per cent against the euro, closing at $1.23. The Japanese yen remained steady at 107.05 yen to the dollar, pairing some of the 0.4 percent fall it saw yesterday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cityam.com\/283754\/double-t-rouble-russian-currency-hammered-markets-reel\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Double t-rouble: Russian currency hammered from souring relations<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the pound has rallied over 1.5 percent in the last three days.

The Russian currency fell 1.77 per cent as US sanctions continue to hurt the countrys economy.
