KARACHI: The rupee recovered more ground versus the dollar on the money market on Saturday in process of trading, dealers said. The rupee 60 paisas in term of the greenback for buying and selling at Rs 106.80 and Rs 107.20, dealers said. While, the local currency gained sharply against the euro for buying and selling at Rs 113.00 and Rs 114.50, they said.
OPEN MARKET RATES: At the week-end, the dollar fell broadly on Friday after posting gains the last three weeks as a solid, but not spectacular, US non-farm payrolls report stirred doubts about the path of rate increases next year.
Analysts, however, said the dollar's weakness was just a short-term correction, a much-needed one, after a strong rally in the wake of Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election on November 8. The dollar index posted its first weekly fall in four weeks against a currency basket, but was still up 1.7 percent for the year. The US currency also slid against the Japanese yen, hitting session lows after the jobs data, but showed gains for a fourth consecutive week.
