Short dollar on rate cuts, policy reforms:
Westpac
Westpac Institutional Bank says it is short dollar and will
add to these positions on rallies back towards 55.50 levels.
Rate cut by the RBI on Jan. 29 will be positive for the
rupee as it will highlight a greater degree of confidence in
the inflation outlook and help drive a rebound in growth,
the bank says in a note. Westpac is more upbeat about the
rupee's prospects at the start of the year due to the
continuation of the government's reform agenda including
delaying of the tax avoidance rules which would encourage
strong capital flows, they say. Lead indicators suggest
TRADING TIPS improvements in Indian exporters, the bank added. "We
suspect the combination of these factors can deliver a
SELL USD/INR decent correction in dollar over the next few weeks," they
