Market Roundup 

The Indian rupee is likely to open little changed with the rise in oil prices and U.S. Treasury yields countered by expectations that the Reserve Bank of India will not allow the currency to slip. Implied opening from forwards suggests the spot may start trading around 83.26. Spot USDINR little changed at 83.26 on Tuesday. Technically, the pair has been trading in a tight range of 83.10 to 83.30 since the start of the month. We expect the pair may continue to trade in the said range for a few more days. Asia stocks struggled for direction while US futures fell, following Wall Street, where bonds slumped after the hot retail data. The BOJ announced a surprise bond-buying operation as benchmark yields climbed to a decade high and the yen held near its key 150 level. US Treasury yields surged as retail sales beat all forecasts and industrial production rose with the new highs threatening repricing across markets. The two-yield hit levels not seen since 2006 as investors judged another Fed rate hike is more likely. Chinese currency appreciated after upbeat economic data. China’s economy found a foothold in the third quarter as the government increased support and consumer spending picked up, while the property market remained a drag. Gross domestic product increased 4.9% in the July-September period from a year prior, data released by the National Bureau of Statistics showed Wednesday. Oil rallied as the deadly explosion at the Gaza hospital boosted tensions before Biden’s arrival in the region. WTI rose above $88 a barrel, after swinging by more than $2 on Tuesday.
