Indian Rupee erased its gains and depreciated around 5 paise to
end at 67.11 against the US dollar on Wednesday. The currency
depreciated on account of dollar demand from bankers and im-
porters. However, upside in domestic market sentiments cush-
ioned sharp upside in the currency. Indian Rupee moved in the
range of 67.0850 to 67.16 in Wednesday’s trading session.
In cross-currency trades, the rupee dropped further against the pound sterling and finished at 88.80 from 88.42, while it recov-
ered against the euro to end at 75.59 as compared to 76.05 on Tuesday. But, the home unit ended virtually steady against the
Japanese yen 66.97 per 100 yens.
US Dollar Index gained around 0.3 percent in Wednesday’s trading session due to rise in risk aversion in global market senti-
ments 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 House Price Index (HPI) unchanged at 0.2 percent in the month of June. Existing Home Sales declined to 5.39 million in July
as against a rise of 5.57 million a month ago.
Euro against dollar declined around 0.4 percent on Wednesday on account of strength in the dollar index. Further, unfavoura-
ble economic data from the region led to downside movement in the currency. Moreover, weak global market sentiments con-
tinued with negative movement in the currency.
German Final Gross Domestic Product (GDP) remained unchanged at 0.4 percent in Q2 of 2016. Belgian National Bank of Bel-
gium (NBB) Business Climate was at negative 3.1-mark in August from a rise of 1-level in July.
The Sterling Pound jumped around 0.3 percent in Wednesday’s trade as a result of stronger-than-expected economic data
after Britain's vote to leave the European Union has helped temper expectations of further Bank of England monetary easing.
However, strength in the dollar index coupled with weak global market sentiments capped sharp upside movement in the cur-
rency.
UK’s British Bankers' Association (BBA) Mortgage Approvals dropped by 2,100 to 37,700 in July as against a rise of 39,800 a
month ago.
