Indian rupee concluded stronger on Wednesday tracing the weakness of American currency after President Barack Obama was re-elected for a second term, signaling no dramatic shift in US economic policy. Indian currency appreciating for second consecutive session also ended stronger thanks to the surge of local equities, on account of across the board risk appetite post Obama’s win. Additionally, even the strength of regional counterparts aided the local currency. Meanwhile, euro rose against the US currency on Wednesday after President Barack Obama's victory ensured the Federal Reserve's quantitative easing would stay.
Finally the rupee ended at 54.20, stronger by 13 paise from its previous close of 54.43 on Tuesday. The currency touched a high and low of 54.36 and 53.97 respectively.
