Stock Market LIVE Updates: Rupee in focus
Stock Market LIVE Updates: USDINR CMP- 83.9825 (spot) Indian Rupee traded range bound with a slight positive bias today on positive domestic and Asian markets. However, a positive US Dollar and surge in crude oil prices capped sharp gains.
Dollar gained as CPI rose in August (M-o-M), which trimmed expectations of a 50 bps rate cut at the FOMC meeting next week. Core CPI increased 0.3 per cent in August (M-o-M) versus forecast of 0.2 per cent. However, annual inflation cooled off to 2.5 per cent (Y-o-Y) in August versus 2.9 per cent in July and in line with the forecast of 2.5 per cent.

However, annual inflation cooled off to 2.5 per cent (Y-o-Y) in August versus 2.9 per cent in July and in line with the forecast of 2.5 per cent.
We expect the Rupee to trade with a slight negative bias on positive US Dollar and a recovery in crude oil prices. However, a rise in risk appetite in global markets may support the Rupee.
Any intervention by the RBI may support the Rupee at lower levels. Traders may take cues from India’s CPI data and ECB monetary policy. Investors may remain cautious ahead of the US FOMC meeting next week. USDINR spot price is expected to trade in a range of Rs 83.80 to Rs 84.20.
