The rupee showed no major change versus the dollar in the process of trading, dealers said. The rupee was unchanged against the dollar for buying and selling at Rs 105.20 and Rs 105.40 respectively, while it dropped by 50 paisas in relation to the euro for buying and selling at Rs 119.50 and Rs 120.50 respectively, they added.
OPEN MARKET RATES: At the week-end, the yen retreated broadly after posting gains this week, weighed by warnings overnight from Japan's finance minister of possible intervention by the government to weaken the currency. Gains in global stock markets and oil prices also bolstered the market's appetite for risk, diminishing the appeal of the safe-haven yen.
The yen surged as much as two percent against the dollar on Thursday. Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso responded early on Friday by warning that rapid currency moves were "undesirable," and the yen's moves were "one-sided."
That is language that Tokyo has used in the past to flag intervention. The yen has rallied to 17-month highs against the dollar, but investors expect Japanese policy makers to hold fire on a rate decision at least until after next week's G20 meetings in Washington.
