USD/INR records a new weekly minimum waiting for US inflation data.

  • Inflation in the US is expected to have grown at a faster rate in May.
  • The increase in foreign capital tickets and a probable decrease in oil prices have strengthened Indian rupee.

The Indian rupee (INR) records a new weekly maximum about 85.43 against the US dollar (USD) in the Opening session on Wednesday. The US dollar quotes calmly after the White House indicated a positive result of the two -day meeting between the United States and China commercial negotiators in London. He US dollar index (DXY), which measures the value of the dollar against six main currencies, rises to about 99.15.

The US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick told reporters that Both nations reached a “frame” to implement the trade agreement made in Geneva in May, if approved by President Donald Trump. Lutnick expressed confidence that China would reduce non -tariff barriers to the export of “rare and magnets”, and Washington would also reverse the export restrictions of sophisticated chips.

Meanwhile, the Chinese ministry has also expressed a positive result of commercial conversations with Washington and declared that the agreement will now be sent to President Xi Jinping for approval.

The US dollar is stable after the commercial agreement between the US and China, which was expected to have a good performance in the decalsed of commercial tensions between the two nations. The analysts of the National Australia Bank said that “the devil will be in the details and, what is important, if this can help restore confidence between President XI and President Trump, which has clearly broken since the Geneva Agreement was published.”

In the legislative field, the US Federal Court of Appeals has declared that tariffs imposed by Donald Trump related to border negligence and those announced in the so -called “Liberation Day” on April 2 will remain in force until demonstrating whether they are permissible under the emergency law or not. The next argument on the sustainability of the mentioned tariffs will take place on July 31.

What moves the market today: Indian rupee exceeds the US dollar before US CPI data.

  • The Indian rupe extends its winning streak for the fifth consecutive day on Wednesday against the US dollar before the US consumer price index (CPI) for May, which will be published at 12:30 GMT.
  • The US CPI report is expected to show that general inflation increased at a faster rate of 2.5% year -on -year, compared to a 2.3% growth observed in April. In the same period, the underlying IPC – which excludes volatile food and energy prices – accelerated to 2.9% from the previous reading of 2.8%. In the month, the general CPI and the underlying increased 0.2% and 0.3% respectively.
  • The high growth scenario of inflation would limit those responsible for Federal Reserve Policies (FED) to reduce interest rates. However, soft inflation figures are unlikely to lead officials to support anticipated trimming of interest rates, assuming that they are more focused on stabilizing the expectations of inflation of the consumer disagree, fueled by the implementation of new economic policies by President Trump.
  • According to the CME Fedwatch tool, the Fed will not reduce interest rates in June and July policy meetings.
  • In the Asian region, strong entries of foreign capital and a probable decrease in the price of oil have strengthened Indian rupee. On Tuesday, the data of the Indian stock exchanges showed that foreign institutional investors (FIIS) were net buyers, injecting 2,301,87 Crore of RS in the shares markets.
  • Meanwhile, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) cites concerns about demand and increased production as factors that could lead to a decrease in international Brent crude to $ 61/BBL by the end of 2025. The lowest oil prices are favorable for the INR, since India is one of the main importers of the world.
  • In the economic field, investors expect the publication of the Indian CPI data for May, scheduled for Thursday. Inflationary pressures are expected to have increased 3% year -on -year, slower than the growth of 3.16% observed in April.
  • The cooling signals of price pressures would lead to market expectations that the Bank of the India Reserve (RBI) could reduce interest rates again. At the policy meeting last week, the RBI unexpectedly cut the repo rate in 50 basic points (BPS) to 5.5% and guided little margin for a greater expansion of monetary policy.
