13:58 (IST) 19 Jul 2022 Future Dollar expenses are deemed to become more expensive
With the Indian Rupee depreciating over 7% against the US Dollar this year, There is an urgent need to offset the effects of a depreciating rupee and that can be achieved by investing in global markets. The cost of financial goals to be realised in the US has exponentially increased. A combination of both increases the burden on aspirational Indian investors who are aiming to send their children abroad for higher education and make remittances for their living costs and other expenses and eat into one’s savings if they are only invested in Domestic markets. Future Dollar expenses are deemed to become more expensive, which is why Indian investors must begin by parking a percentage of their portfolio in the Dollar via US ETFs and Stocks.

11:51 (IST) 19 Jul 2022 Rupee depreciation on expected lines
“The rupee has been depreciating against the USD for a whole host of factors. Concerns around an economic slowdown in the US, Fed hiking rates, geopolitical tension between Russia-Ukraine, and a spike in oil prices have pushed INR to an all-time low. The US Fed hiking rates aggressively led to the dollar strengthening, and subsequently, FPIs pulled out funds from the Indian equity markets. FPIs have pulled out a record Rs 2.25 lakh crores from the Indian market in 2022 (YTD). The INR depreciation is on expected lines, though it has depreciated nearly 25% since 2014 the fall has been moderate if compared to other Asian currencies. A dollar strengthening leads to a weakening of other currencies as witnessed in 2020 and 2013. In fact, some of the major currencies like GBP, Euro, and Yen have depreciated more than the INR.”

11:45 (IST) 19 Jul 2022 Rupee to further slide due to current severe rate hike by US Fed

Nevertheless, the RBI is aware of the falling rupee quagmire and could take actions to curb the further depreciation, thus we expect further downside to 81 to 81.5 levels.”
