The dollar fell against almost all major currencies and hit a record low against the euro Tuesday after the Federal Reserve made an aggressive half-point cut in a key interest rate. The euro rose as high $1.3979 after the long-awaited decision before settling back to $1.3971 in late New York trading, up from 1.3867 Monday. The dollar fell against the pound, too.
