Rupee Gains Significantly Against A Strong Dollar, With Plenty Of Risks At Play

Rupee Gains Significantly Against A Strong Dollar, With Plenty Of Risks At Play

Rupee Today: Rupee gains to 79.68 per dollar early on Tuesday

The rupee gained ground early on Tuesday even as the dollar firmed but remained below its two-decade peak, with investors eyeing the Federal Reserve meeting later this week to understand the rate hike path.

PTI reported that the rupee gained 13 paise to 79.68 against the US dollar in early trade.

Bloomberg quoted the domestic currency last at 79.6800, after opening at 79.6862, compared to Monday's close of 79.7725.

That even as investors braced for the Federal Reserve to continue its aggressive interest-rate-hiking campaign to reign in runaway inflation, pushing the dollar to hold steady on Tuesday against major rivals, but below a two-decade high.

The dollar index, which compares the value of the greenback against six other major currencies, was flat at 109.53, below the high hit earlier this month of 110.79, a level not reached since June 2002.

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
