Indian Rupee Strengthens to Six-Month High Amid Lower Oil Prices and Foreign Inflows
The Indian rupee strengthened to a six-month high near 93.70 against the US dollar on November 9, supported by easing crude oil prices, increased foreign portfolio inflows, and hopes of de-escalation in Middle East tensions. Positive global sentiment following US midterm elections and lower Brent crude prices contributed to the recovery. However, gains were limited by dollar demand from state-run banks and geopolitical risks. Market participants are closely watching upcoming US inflation data and crude oil trends for further direction.
