Rupee expected to strengthen in line with decline in oil prices; gains might be limited by US rates

17 Aug 2022 , 10:26 AM

On Wednesday, the Indian rupee is anticipated to open higher against the dollar, following a decrease in oil prices to their lowest level since mid-February on worries about the future of global economic development. After a four-day holiday, trade is expected to reopen with the rupee expected to start at 79.25—79.30 per dollar, up from 79.6550 on Friday.
On Tuesday, traders were waiting for clarification on discussions to resurrect an agreement that may allow for additional Iranian oil shipments as Brent crude prices dropped around 3% to tumble to close to $92 a barrel amid worries about a probable global economic downturn. Concerns over India’s record trade imbalance and inflation forecast are anticipated to diminish if oil prices decline to levels last seen before to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The Reserve Bank of India’s upper tolerance level for consumer inflation has been exceeded for seven consecutive months, while India’s trade deficit for July was $30 billion. On Tuesday, U.S. Treasury rates increased on speculation that the Federal Reserve will not dramatically change its hawkish attitude in the wake of the July inflation figures.
In order to combat the inflation danger, policymakers have stated that they would keep raising interest rates. On Wednesday, the minutes of the July Fed meeting are due. The 2-year yield is nearly at the same levels as it was before the softer-than-expected U.S. inflation report, while the 10-year Treasury yield is above those levels.
