The dollar rebounded on Monday against major currencies, recovering from last week's losses, as investors shifted focus to upcoming U.S. inflation data.

The greenback gained 0.4% against the yen and rose for a second consecutive day versus the euro. Market expectations now lean towards a 25-basis-point rate cut at the Federal Reserve's meeting next week, down from Friday's anticipation of a larger cut.

Amo Sahota of Klarity FX suggests the possibility of a significant rate cut in November, depending on inflation data. The dollar's recent strength comes despite a month of declines, with a 2.1% loss in September. Key attention is now on U.S. consumer price index data due Wednesday and further economic developments.
