USD/INR: Rupee third best EM currency this month, courtesy oil sell-off


According to the latest Bloomberg data, the Indian Rupee (INR) emerged the third best performing currency among the Emerging Market (EM) currencies this month, with the gains mainly driven by the recent weakness in oil prices.

The Rupee climbed 2.80% versus the US dollar so far this month when compared to the rise in the Chilean Peso and the Indonesian Rupiah. Barring this month’s rise, the Rupee has been one of the worst performing EM currencies this calendar year. 

At the press time, the USD/INR cross flirts with 11-week lows of 71.07, having failed several attempts to recover above the 71.20 level.
