Chris Wheal(Reuters) The euro held near three-month lows versus the dollar on Friday after the Catalan parliament declared its independence from Spain after a secret ballot, which is now likely to be ruled illegal by Spain's constitutional court.
At lunchtime Friday the single currency was down 0.5% at $1.1590, putting it on track for its steepest weekly decline against the greenback in 11 months, Reuters data showed.
