However, a sharp fall was prevented on upbeat job data and as US central bank announced $ 15 billion monthly tapering • Rupee future maturing on November 26 appreciated by 0.12% in Thursday’s trading session on softening of crude oil prices and rise in risk appetite in the domestic markets • The rupee is expected to depreciate today on strong dollar and surge in crude oil prices. Dollar is gaining strength on stronger job data and as US Federal Reserve announced its asset tapering. Additionally, crude oil prices may rise on renewed supply concerns after Opec+ producers agreed to stick to their plan of raise oil output by 400,000 barrels per day.
