THE RUPEE: dollar higher on currency market

15 Mar, 2009

Rising uncertainties on the political side, pushed the rupee to give up its so called stability against dollar, dropping 14 paisa for buying at 80.44 and falling 12 paisa for selling at 80.47, they said. There were high demands for dollars, which dragged the rupee down, giving an impression that the local currency moved cautiously in the coming days, experts said.
Amid final session of the week dollar gave up its gains against euro in volatile trade as US stocks closed the week in positive territory, prompting investors to take on more risk. The US currency had swung between gains and losses for most of the day, following trends in the stock market amid better-than-expected economic data and signs the banking sector may be stabilising.
