The Pakistani Rupee gain marginally against the US Dollar during the opening hours of trading in the inter-bank on Tuesday.
At 11:10 am, the rupee showed a slight increase to 285.53 in the inter-bank market, rising by Re0.11.
Following marginal losses on Monday, when it settled at 285.64 against the US dollar, the rupee’s current shift reflects ongoing market dynamics.
Internationally, the US dollar experienced a dip to a three-month low against its peer currencies on Tuesday. This decline was prompted by weaker-than-expected new home sales data, causing traders to speculate on the possibility of the Federal Reserve initiating interest rate cuts in the first half of the upcoming year.
The data revealed a 5.6% drop in US new home sales to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 679,000 units in October, falling short of the 723,000 units anticipated by economists polled by Reuters. This outcome contributed to a decline in Treasury yields, shaping the broader outlook for the US dollar.
