Indian Rupee erased from its gains and depreciated marginally to end at
67.06 against the US dollar on Friday. The currency depreciated on ac-
count of weak domestic market sentiments and investors maintained a
cautious stance ahead of the Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen speech.
However, inflow of foreign funds in equities and debt market cushioned
sharp fall in the currency. According to the data released by the NSE,
the Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) were net buyer of Rs 835.00
crore in index futures and options segments, as per Thursday’s data,
August 25, 2016. Indian Rupee moved in the range of 66.98 to 67.02 in
Friday’s trading session. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) fixed reference
rate for the dollar was seen at 67.02 and Euro stood at 75.73 in Friday’s
trade.
US Dollar Index gained around 0.84 percent in Friday’s trading session due to rise in risk aversion in global market sentiments
which led to increase in demand for the low yielding currency. However, unfavourable economic data from the country
capped sharp positive movement in the currency.
US Prelim Gross Domestic Product (GDP) fell marginally to 1.1 percent in second quarter of 2016 as against a rise of 1.2 per-
cent in first quarter of 2016. Goods Trade Balance was at a deficit of $59.3 billion in July from a deficit of $64.5 billion in June.
Prelim GDP Price Index rose to 2.3 percent in Q2 of 2016 when compared to 2.2 percent in prior quarter. Revised UoM Con-
sumer Sentiment dropped by 0.6 points to 89.8-mark in August with respect to 90.4-level in July. Revised UoM Inflation Expec-
tations unchanged at 2.5 percent in the current month.
Euro against dollar fell around 0.75 percent on Friday on account of strength in the dollar index. Further, weak global market
sentiments kept pressure on the currency. However, favourable economic data from the region cushioned sharp negative
movement in the currency.
GfK German Consumer Climate rose to 10.2-mark in August as against a rise of 10-level in July. Euro Zone Money Supply fell to
4.8 percent in July from a rise of 5 percent in June.
The Sterling Pound dropped around 0.4 percent in Friday’s trade as a result of strength in the dollar index coupled with weak
global market sentiments. However, favourable economic data from the country cushioned sharp downside movement in the
currency. UK’s Second Estimate Gross Domestic Product (GDP) remained unchanged at 0.6 percent in Q2 of 2016. Prelim Busi-
ness Investment grew by 0.5 percent in Q2 of 2016 as against a drop of 0.6 percent in previous quarter.
The Japanese Yen against dollar depreciated by more than 1 percent in Friday’s trading session due to rise in risk appetite in
global market sentiments in early part of the trade which led to decline in demand for the low yielding currency.
