Rupee weakened against the US dollar on Monday amid foreign fund outflows and cautious opening in domestic equities, though weakening of the American currency against other currencies overseas and easing crude oil prices added support to the local unit and restricted the downfall. Market participants are awaiting cues from the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting on July 31. Market participants are also looking forward to the US and China trade talks, which can impact rupee movement. The US and Chinese officials are restarting negotiations in Shanghai on Tuesday in an effort to resolve the year-long trade dispute.
