Currency Report 3rd November 2017
Snapping its three-day gaining streak, Indian rupee ended marginally weaker against the American currency on Thursday, due to fresh dollar demand from banks and importers amid foreign fund outflows. Sentiments were down despite the private report stating that India’s Current Account Deficit (CAD) for this financial year is expected to be around $40 billion, or 1.5% of GDP. CAD rose sharply to $14.3 billion, 2.4% of GDP, at the end of first quarter of 2017-18. Besides, some losses in the domestic equity market too affected the rupee, but dollar’s weakness against some currencies overseas kept the fall to a minimum.
On the global front, dollar fell on Thursday, giving up some of its gains this week, as investors took profits after the US Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday, as expected, with markets widely expecting a rate hike at its next meeting.
