Modest recovery was seen in the interbank market on Wednesday as the rupee picked up two paisa against the dollar for buying at Rs 60.69 and gaining one paisa for selling at Rs 60.71, respectively. Better supply of the US currency helped the rupee and it seems that the rupee might show firmness in the coming days, dealers said.
In the world markets the dollar drifted lower as the yen held gains after climbing near a three-month high versus the dollar as investors unwound risky positions on worries the turmoil in the US sub-prime mortgage market may hurt the broader economy. The Japanese currency initially extended its rebound against major currencies following Tuesday's US data showing that late payments on US mortgages hit a 3-1/2-year high in the fourth quarter and rising delinquencies in 49 of 50 states.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee shed two paisa versus the dollar at Rs 60.72 and Rs 60.82 for both the buying and selling, dealers said. The rupee, however, gained three paisa in relation to the euro for buying and selling at Rs 79.82 and Rs 79.92, they said.
