Rupee Shows Minor Fluctuations Amid Oil Price Drop and US Dollar Strength
The Indian rupee experienced minor fluctuations against the US dollar, falling by up to 21 paise to 94.97 in early trade on November 2 before closing near 94.86-94.90. Gains of around 12 paise were seen on November 3, supported by easing crude oil prices and foreign institutional investor inflows into domestic equities. However, a firm US dollar and cautious investor sentiment ahead of the US midterm elections limited significant rupee appreciation. Brent crude prices declined amid hopes for diplomatic progress in West Asia, while the dollar index showed mixed movements. Domestic equity markets saw notable gains during this period.
