Rupee closes marginally higher, RBI intervention seen
The Indian rupee closed slightly higher against the U.S. currency on Thursday, after a choppy session in which the Reserve Bank of India likely sold dollars to support the local currency.The rupee ended at 81.86 per U.S. dollar, a tad higher than the record closing low of 81.94 in the previous session.The rupee had opened higher at 81.61, but was not able to sustain the gains on dollar buying by foreign banks and oil companies.
The initial upticks of the domestic market were short-lived due to its weak global peers and declining rupee. As the yield differential between India and the US fell to a multi-year low of 348 bps, foreign investors are still departing from the Indian market. Amid the ongoing global trend of aggressive rate hikes, markets are braced for a 50 bps increase by RBI. Investors eagerly await the central bank’s intervention to aid bank liquidity, curb currency depreciation, and provide updates on its monetary stance & GDP outlook.

When negative sentiments become dominant, the risk-off gathers momentum and markets get oversold. Then, usually, an unexpected trigger reverses the near-term outlook leading to short covering and a market rally. This was precisely what happened yesterday in global markets when the Bank of England surprised markets with Quantitative Easing. This desperate act by BoE is more a reflection of the economic woes of the UK. But the market’s interpretation of the BoE’s surprise decision is that the Fed might pause its rate hike to avert a sharp economic downturn. The relief rally is likely to soon run out of steam and, therefore, investors need not make aggressive buys now. The MPC is likely to raise rates by 50bps and may move to a neutral stance. But this is already discounted by the market and therefore will not have any market moving impact.
