Hi Folks,

 

This thread is being created to discuss the direction of INR - USD Exchange Rate. IMO many of us are trading INR:USD. From trading point of view, how should we take a call on INR:USD rate.

 

In the recent past, we have seen that Indian Rupee (INR) is losing its value against USD. The partially convertible rupee closed at 57.79 per dollar, 1 per cent stronger compared with 58.39 on Tuesday. It hit a record low of 58.98 on Tuesday.

 

Where can we expect INR:USD Rate 1 or 2 months down the line ?????

I recently came to know that at least five top currency traders and economists say the probability of the rupee will fall to 60 to the US dollar is higher than it will move towards 50 with record foreign fund flows of the last eight months tapering off. This is largely on account of the boost in sentiment following a rash of reforms failing to translate into real business activity.

Hey Saak,

 

I recently came to know that Indian Finance Minister have taken actions to strengthen the currency. I believe INR is gonna to be appreciate against USD and it might reach to 55 in couple of months down the line.

We know that the rupee is at a record low, our natural inclination is to assume that the rupee is a very weak currency. But, I am gonna to explain that this is misleading. Lets see why this is misleading.

 

In the long term, currency values reflect relative inflation. The more inflation a country has the weaker its currency becomes. Based on this logic, what should we expect to happen to the value of the rupee against the dollar over time?

 

Over the last 10 years, US inflation has averaged around 2%, while Indian inflation has averaged 8%. This means that every year, the rupee's value, in purchasing power terms, is lower by 6% relative to the US dollar. So, we expect that the rupee should depreciate against the dollar by an average of 6% per year solely due to inflation.

 

Given this metric, we can compare actual currency performance to what is expected purely due to inflation. Over the last 10 years, taking into account the rupee's recent decline, the rupee has fallen by a little less than 30% against the dollar. This translates into an average depreciation of 3% per year and this is significantly less than what is implied by the difference in inflation rates between India and the US.

 

It means that in real terms, the rupee has become more valuable against the dollar in the last decade. This is due to strong economic performance and high growth rates for most of the decade.

Higher than expected job data in US has pulled down gold prices in international market as dollar strengthened. However strong dollar has resulted in Indian rupee quoted at sharply lower and was traded at around Rs 61 on DGCX indian rupee-USD futures.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
