Rupee strengthens for second consecutive session; macro-economic data eyed

12 Jul 2018 Evaluate

Indian rupee strengthened for second consecutive session on Thursday, on dollar selling by exporters and banks. The rupee sentiment was buoyed with a report that India has become the world’s sixth largest economy overtaking France. According to World Bank data on gross domestic product (GDP) of countries for 2017, India’s gross domestic product (GDP) stood at $2.597 trillion at the end of 2017, compared to $2.582 trillion for France. Besides, good going in the local equity markets too supported the domestic unit. However, gains remained capped as anxiety spread among the traders ahead of key economic data - industrial production (IIP) numbers for May and retail inflation for June - to be released later in the day. On the global front, dollar steadied near a six-month high against the Japanese yen and held firm against its major peers on Thursday after the latest US economic data reaffirmed expectations that the Federal Reserve will hike interest rates two more times this year.

Finally, the rupee ended at 68.57, 20 paise stronger from its previous close of 68.77 on Wednesday. The currency touched a high and low of 68.70 and 68.50 respectively.
