DAILY FOREX REPORT FOR EXPORTERS AND IMPORTERS
(inter-bank prices below)
Trend for the US dollar is bearish. Tomorrow’s US second quarter GDP numbers will be the key. US-Mexico trade deal may not necessary be bullish for the greenback. It is just a wait and watch for the US dollar despite bearish technical for the US dollar Index. A US-Canada trade deal (if any as there is speculation) can result in more losses for the US dollar. Obviously emerging markets will heave sign of relief as their currencies gain. Emerging markets wants their currencies to stop the depreciating trend. I see US dollar short positions starting to increase as opposed to net longs currently.

India
FDI grows 23% to $12.75 bn during Apr-June. Foreign direct investment in India grew by 23 per cent to $12.75 billion during the April-June quarter of 2018-19. The foreign fund inflows in April-June 2017-18 stood at $10.4 billion. Positive inflows are there. There are no bad news for the rupee at the moment. The only risk to India is competition from emerging market peers. Emerging markets like Indonesia, Philippines among others have been most hit in stocks as well as currencies. Indian stock markets are rising as it is still the safest bet.
If there is any indication that Indonesia and other emerging markets have formed a long term bottom, then these nations will get more foreign inflows than India. Chinese opening their financial sector to global investors will also give a big competition to India. Chinese financial sector is highly undervalued as compared to India. The only difference between India and Chinese financial sector is that regulation and safe guards in India is at par with global standards which is not the case as yet with Chinese.

Volatility will rise till Friday for the rupee against the global currencies.

Euro/US dollar (euro/usd CMP 1.1673):
One Support: 1.1602
One Resistance: 1.1791
o      Euro/usd can rise to 1.1791 and 1.1898 by Thursday as long as it trades over 1.1602.
o      Trend is bullish.
