Bulls dominated the open market on Saturday as the rupee appreciated against dollar and euro, dealers said. The rupee maintained its overnight surge against dollar, picking 20 paisa for buying and selling at 96.00 and 96.30, they said. The rupee also gained 10 paisa in terms of euro for buying and selling at Rs 120.00 and Rs 121.00, they added.
OPEN MARKET RATES: According to the Reuters: At the week-end euro climbed for a fourth straight session against dollar on Friday, underpinned by expectations that central banks around the world will act to prevent any fallout arising after Sunday's crucial Greek election. The dollar, meanwhile, slumped against yen as Friday's US economic data reflected weakness in the recovery, raising the prospect the Federal Reserve may resort to further monetary easing.
The Federal Open Market Committee, the Fed's policy-making arm, is scheduled to meet next Tuesday and Wednesday. But Sunday's Greek vote has been the focus this week.
