Firmness prevailed on the money market on Saturday as the rupee managed to hold overnight levels in the process of trading, dealers said on Saturday. The rupee did not show any change versus the dollar for buying and selling at Rs 107.30 and Rs 107.50 respectively, they said.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee extended overnight slide in terms of the euro, dropping 60 paisas for buying at Rs 127.50 and the national currency slid by Rs 1.60 for selling Rs 128.75, they said.
In the final NY trade, the dollar fell to its lowest since late September against a basket of currencies on Friday as investors grew optimistic about the strength of the euro zone's recovery and lost appetite for the greenback.
The euro hit its highest since Sept. 25 against the dollar, up 0.65 percent on the day and more than 1 percent for the week. It was the single currency's third straight week of gains, its best run since July, and second straight 1 percent weekly gain.
Against the Japanese yen, the euro rose more than 1 percent to 1.3323, its highest since Nov. 16.
"You had good data (this week) from Europe, pretty good news from Germany and nobody guarding the dollar as we're all eating turkey," said John Doyle, director of markets at Tempus Inc in Washington.
On Thanksgiving Thursday, while markets in the US were closed, euro zone business growth surveys showed surprise growth, supporting the European Central Bank (ECB) move last month to announce a throttling back of its monetary stimulus. The currency bloc's latest Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) readings suggest the upturn still has momentum.
