Rupee extending its gains has made a positive start on Tuesday. The domestic currency has been strengthening on the back of weakness in the American currency in in overseas markets and mild selling of dollar by exporters. Rupee was also getting support with the good going in the equity markets and the stability in the emerging market currencies, as the traders were seeking more clarity on the pace of the US economic recovery after a series of soft data releases in the past few weeks. In the global markets the dollar was slowly stabilizing while the euro was near seven-week highs on a surprise improvement in German business morale.
