Dollar Rebounds Against Mark

The dollar rose against the mark Tuesday after Germany’s six leading economic research groups lowered their economic forecasts for this year.

The U.S. currency gained against the yen after Japan’s finance minister suggested the Group of Seven industrial nations will not initiate a new foreign-exchange policy to temper the dollar’s recent strength.

A rally in U.S. stock and bond markets also lifted the dollar Tuesday afternoon.
