Monday 07 Aug 2017 Market Overview Asian stocks advanced early today, taking cues from Wall Street's strong end to the previous week, while the dollar finally witnessed a pullback after stronger-than-expected jobs growth in July. The key data point raised prospects of another interest rate hike by the US Federal Reserve this year. The rupee is expected to open lower against the US dollar as the greenback rose globally following the release of robust employment data in the US for July. The Indian unit is expected to open at a dollar as against at close Friday. The currency pair is seen moving in the range of a dollar through the day. Premiums on dollar/rupee forwards may rise as banks are expected to purchase dollars for forward delivery noting the attractive levels, according to some FX dealers. However, some dollar sales for forward delivery by exporters may arrest the premiums in a narrow range, dealers said. On an annualised basis, premium on the one-year exact-period contract was at 4.38% on Friday, compared with 4.41% at the previous close On Friday, premium on the one-year month-end contract was at paise, against paise on Thursday.

Britain is prepared to pay up to 40 billion euros ($47 billion) as part of a deal to leave the European Union, the Sunday Telegraph newspaper reported, citing three unnamed sources familiar with Britain's negotiating strategy. The European Union has floated a figure of 60 billion euros and wants significant progress on settling Britain's liabilities before talks can start on complex issues such as future trading arrangements. The government department responsible for Brexit talks declined to comment on the Sunday Telegraph article. So far, Britain has given no official indication of how much it would be willing to pay. The newspaper said British officials were likely to offer to pay 10 billion euros a year for three years after leaving the EU in March 2019, then finalise the total alongside detailed trade talks. Payments would only be made as part of a deal that included a trade agreement, the newspaper added.

Markets expected that there would be a voting of 5-3 for hiking the interest rates for first in a decade by 25 basis points. But the Central Banks, surprisingly kept the rates unchanged and more over it has cut down the GDP as well as wage growth projections. This has kept the investors to be concerned about the future of UK economy. Even the BoE has hinted that, it would start hiking the interest rates from Q3 of 2018, which is way distant from the markets expectations. This disappoint from British Central Banker has overlapped the PMI reports which were reported better than expectations. Now most of the traders doubt if is to be toppedin GBP against US dollar.
