Rupee rises; volatility expectations drop on dwindling worries over US tariffs

Live Mint  

By Nimesh Vora MUMBAI, Jan 24 - The Indian rupee rose on Friday, tracking a Chinese yuan-driven rally in Asian peers, after U.S. President Donald Trump said a trade deal with the country was on the cards, while volatility expectations plunged on relief over the lack of immediate U.S. tariffs on China. Trump said on Thursday that his recent conversation with Chinese President Xi Jinping was "friendly", adding he thought he could reach a trade deal with China, which boosted the yuan and its Asian peers. "You have to remember that the fear was that Trump on day 1 of his taking office would press on with tariffs." Volatility expectations in the rupee and other Asian currencies have dropped this week amid a pullback in tariff concerns.
