Bearish sentiment was seen in the iner-bank market on Saturday as the rupee shed two paisa against the dollar for buying and selling at Rs 60.74 and Rs 60.75, dealers said.
It was expected that the rupee may face slight devaluation against dollar ahead of announcement of the federal budget (2007-08), which is likely next week, they said.
In the world market dollar gained slightly at the weekend after a report, showing the US economy added 157,000 new jobs in May, above the median forecast, suggesting the Federal Reserve may have to hold rates steady for some time. But the dollar swiftly turned lower after lower than expected US core inflation reading.
