The Indian Rupee (INR) faced significant pressure this morning, breaching the ₹86 per dollar mark in early trade before showing a slight recovery by noon.
Here’s why it happened, what it means for you, and how Vizzve Finance can help you stay ahead during currency volatility.
📉 What Triggered the Fall?
Global Dollar Strength: The US dollar strengthened after hawkish comments from the US Fed, pressuring emerging market currencies.
Crude Oil Prices: Brent near $84 means higher oil import bills for India — adding pressure on INR.
FPI Outflows: Foreign investors booked profits in Indian equities, increasing demand for dollars.
📈 Why the Slight Recovery?
RBI Intervention: Likely central bank activity in the forex market to curb volatility.
Exporters Selling Dollars: Some exporters may have sold dollars at the higher rate, bringing relief.
Stabilizing Bond Yields: A marginal pullback in U.S. Treasury yields offered temporary support.
