As a result of intervention by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), the rates moved both ways on the currency market on Thursday in process of persisting demand for dollars, dealers said. In the interbank market, the rupee got rid of its overnight weakness against the dollar, recovering 30 paisa for buying at 79.15 and it also gained 35 paisa for selling at 79.20, they said.
Some money experts said that during the day the rupee touched the mark of 79.84 due to strong demand by the importers. During the fourth session, yen edged off a three-year peak against euro after co-ordinated global interest rate cuts gave a slight boost to some battered Asian stock markets and helped improve investor appetite for risk. But market players were cautious about how sustainable any improvement is after the panic that has gripped financial markets around the world this week, sparking a sharp sell-off in stocks, higher-yielding currencies and commodities.
OPEN MARKET RATES: The rupee, however, lost 30 paisa against dollar for buying and selling at 79.80 and 80.20.In the process of trading dollar once crossed the 81 mark, they said.
