The euro was on the backfoot early on Friday after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi struck a cautious note on the euro zone economy, while lower debt yields pressured the dollar against the yen.

The euro traded little changed at $1.3360 after shedding about 0.15 percent overnight. The common currency, which hit a nine-month low of $1.3333 on Wednesday, stands to lose about 0.5 percent on the week. The dollar eased to 102.05 yen after the benchmark 10-year U.S.
