The dollar's weakness against some currencies overseas and early gains in the domestic equity market too supported rupee’s initial gains. On the global front, the dollar took a breather on Tuesday as investors consolidated the gains built on expectations of increased fiscal spending and higher inflation under a Trump administration. Meanwhile, an earthquake of magnitude 7.4 and the subsequent tsunami warning in northern Japan prompted knee-jerk selling of the dollar for safe-haven yen in early trade.
