6 Sri Lanka rupee weaker on equity outflows, importer dlr demand The Sri Lankan rupee traded weaker on Monday, slipping from the previous session's more-than-one-week high, on dollar demand from equity outflows and importers. The spot rupee was traded at /80 per dollar at 0625 GMT, weaker from Friday's close of /60 per dollar, which was its highest level in more than a week. The currency has been hovering around three-month lows through much of last week as importer dollar demand and equity outflows were offset by dollar sales by state banks. Foreign investors bought a net 709 million rupees worth of government securities in the week ended Feb. 26 after being net sellers for the past two weeks. They sold a net 5.43 billion rupees in stocks in 15 straight sessions through Friday. The rupee has gained about 3.4 percent since it hit a record low of on Aug. 28 last year. It lost 2.5 percent in (reuters.com) US economic growth rate revised down The US economy grew at a much slower rate from October to December than originally predicted. US gross domestic product (GDP) grew at an annualised rate of 2.4% in the fourth quarter of 2013, down from an initial estimate of 3.2%. The revision is down to weaker than expected consumer spending. Severe winter weather in the US is expected to slow growth further in the current quarter. The Commerce Department initially predicted consumer spending had expanded by 3.3%, but spending is now estimated to have grown at a 2.6% annual rate. Consumer spending accounts for roughly 70% of US economic activity. Bad winter weather has cut into vehicle sales, among other purchases. Despite the revised GDP estimate, US growth should be regarded as strong. (bbc.com) India's economy grows slower than expected India's economic growth rate slowed down in the most recent quarter. The economy expanded at an annual rate of 4.7% in the three months to December, down from 4.8% in the previous quarter. The figure was lower than analysts had been expecting. Asia's third-largest economy has been weighed down by various factors, such as high inflation, a weak currency and a drop in foreign investment. For the same period in 2012, annual GDP growth was 4.5%. This is the fifth quarter in a row that India's annual growth rate has been below the 5% mark. Manufacturing was hardest hit - falling by 1.9% compared with the previous year. The industry is considered one of the country's biggest job creators. The curious case of China's falling yuan The Chinese currency has had its biggest one-day fall, down nearly 1%, and has fallen 1.5% for the past week and a half. It is the biggest decline since 2005 when it introduced its new currency regime and moved away from a tight peg against the US dollar. Dropping to 6.1 yuan to the dollar, the currency has broken a long-term trend of appreciation. Recall that it had been around 8 yuan to the dollar in 1994 when the exchange rate was set up.
