RUPEE STRENGTHEN AHEAD OF US FED CHAIR JANET YELLEN
STATEMENT
Indian rupee gains against US dollar on Thursday following
exporter and banks selling. Investors also turned cautious awaiting
US Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellens speech, which could
provide a clue on further interest rates hike or cut. Besides, a
weakness in US greenback against some major currencies overseas
too supported the rupee.
The home currency closed at 67.06 per dollar, up 0.07% from` its
previous close of 67.10. The rupee opened at 67.08 per dollar and
touched a high and a low of 67.05 and 67.11 respectively. The 10year bond yield was trading at 7.123%, compared with its
Wednesdays close of 7.135%. Bond yields and prices move in
opposite directions.
USDINR near month future has been consolidating in range of
66.80 to 67.49. The USDINR August contract expiry might settle in
the range 66.90 -67.20 on 29th August.
Dollar Inches Lower Ahead Of Yellen Speech
The dollar index, which gauges the greenback against a basket of
six major counterparts, edged down 0.1% to 94.718, on track for a
modest gain of 0.2% for the week. The dollar remained on
tenterhooks on Friday, ahead of Federal Reserve Chair Janet
Yellen's highly anticipated speech later in the session that some
believe could provide clarity on whether U.S. interest rates are
headed higher this year.
Data overnight reinforced recent upbeat assessments of the U.S.
economy. New orders for U.S. manufactured capital goods rose for
a second straight month in July as demand for machinery and a
range of other products picked up, while the number of Americans
filing for unemployment benefits unexpectedly dropped. The
release of the U.S. data, futures markets were indicating a 24%
chance the Fed will hike rates at its policy meeting next month and
a roughly 57% chance of an increase in December, according to
the CME Group's Fed-Watch.
