No correction required

Explanation:

Correct Answer is (d).The original sentence is incorrect.
Reason: The writer is referring to the ‘dollar index’. The U.S. Dollar Index is an index (or measure) of the value of the United States dollar relative to a basket of foreign currencies. According to the given sentence, the dollar index has become weak. Therefore, a ‘weak dollar index’ should be used here instead of ‘dollar weak index’ so as to make the sentence correct.
The sentence after replacement becomes:
A weak dollar index and lower US treasury yield are also making the yellow metal attractive for investors.Option D is hence the correct answer.
