
The dollar traded lower against its rivals Wednesday,
continuing a bearish pattern that has persisted since Federal
Reserve policy makers signaled one week ago that they would
begin raising interest rates later than the market had expected.
The euro was at $1.0974, compared with $1.0924 late Tuesday
in New York. The dollar was at ¥119.41, compared with
¥119.74. The pound rebounded against the buck, trading at
$1.4916, compared with $1.4847.

The Indian rupee today inched up by a paisa against the
American currency to end at 62.26, extending its winning
streak to seventh straight session - the longest string of gains
since June 2011. The rupee opened higher at 62.20 per dollar
as against yesterday's closing level of 62.27 per dollar at the
Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) Market. It then firmed up
further to 62.14 per dollar on initial selling of dollars by banks
and exporters in view of sustained capital inflows. However, the
rupee trimmed its initial gains on some dollar demand from
banks and importers and ended at 62.26, showing a marginal
gain of one paise or 0.02 per cent.
French business confidence index fell to 99 from 100 in February. It
was forecast to remain unchanged at 100.
U.S. stocks were bludgeoned in Wednesday trading with the Dow
threatening a 300-point drop as the Nasdaq Composite suffered its
steepest decline since April 2014 as investors dumped technology and
biotechs shares. The Nasdaq Composite ended the day down 118.21
points, or 2.4%, at 4,876.52.ost 19.06 points, or 0.9%, to 2,072.44. The
S&P 500 fell 30.45 points, or 1.5% to 2,061.05. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average lost 292.60 points, or 1.6% to 17,718.54.
