Rupee weaker as trades take position for next week


Traders will take positions for next week. Next week we have just two working days. Thereafter a very long holiday. Domestic events and global events are changing very rapidly. The next quarter will be different from the current quarter. In the next quarter (a) India has a new financial year (b) The progress of monsoon from early May will be closely watched (c) The government ability/inability to curtail retail food price inflation in the next quarter should be one of the biggest challenge (d) On the global front US interest rate expectation, progresses of US economy after the Easter holidays, direction of the US dollar and global energy prices are some of the factors which can affect India. (e) Indian stock markets consolidation phase (if any) will limit rupee gains.

For now rupee is affected by presence of the Reserve bank of India. They are on both sides of the curve.
