US Dollar Index
The US Dollar Index (DX) traded on a flat note and declined marginally 0.01 percent in yesterdays trading session on the back of rise in risk appetite in global markets which led to fall in demand for low yielding currency. However, sharp downside in the currency was cushioned on account of unfavorable economic data from US. The DX touched an intra-day low of 80.71 and closed at 80.75 on Tuesday.

Dollar/INR
The Indian Rupee depreciated 1.3 percent in yesterdays trading session. The currency depreciated on account of heavy dollar demand from defense companies and oil importers. Further, weak domestic markets and stronger DX in the early part of the trade added downside pressure on the currency. Additionally, concerns over the current account deficit of the country acted as negative factor for the Indian Rupee. The currency touched an intra-day low of 58.87 and closed at 58.83 against dollar on Tuesday. For the month of June 2013, FII outflows totaled at Rs.1,871.30 crores th ($316.02 million) as on 18 June 2013. Year to date basis, net capital th inflows stood at Rs.81,333.80 crores ($15,037.0 million) till 18 June 2013. Outlook The Rupee is expected to depreciate as factors like weak domestic equities and economic worries will continue to act as a negative factor for the currency. Movement in the Dollar Index is dependent on the Federal Reserves actions towards stimulus pullback. In our opinion, the Fed would most likely announce its strategy in this meeting and actually begin the withdrawal in the coming months. Hence, towards the end of the session, the Dollar Index could weaken as the actual implementation of the pullback in the bond-buying program is not expected on an immediate basis.

JPY/INR
JPY (% change) The Japanese Yen depreciated 0.9 percent in the yesterdays trade on the back of rise in risk appetite in the global markets which led to fall in demand for the low yielding currency. The Yen touched an intra-day low of 95.76 and closed at 95.32 against dollar on Tuesday. Japans Trade Balance was at a deficit of 0.82 trillion Yen in May as against a previous deficit of 0.70 trillion Yen a month ago. Outlook For intra-day, we expect the Japanese Yen to depreciate, taking cues from rise in risk appetite in the global markets, which will lead to fall in demand for the low-yielding currency. However, sharp downside in the currency will be cushioned as a result of favorable trade balance data from the country. Technical Outlook
