The rupee had hit an all-time low of 85 to the U.S. dollar on December 19. Last Friday, it came precariously<\/strong> (dangerously or unstable<\/strong>) close to the 86-mark before a late intervention by the central bank pulled it back to 85.53. A confluence<\/strong> (coming together<\/strong>) of factors at work have hurt the rupee in recent times, including the sustained outflows of foreign portfolio investments from securities markets after key indices peaked in late September. Overstretched<\/strong> (beyond reasonable limits<\/strong>) stock valuations, a demotivating corporate performance in the July-September quarter, and China\u2019s economic stimulus, nudged emerging market portfolios from Mumbai to Beijing. The Donald Trump factor added a fresh headwind<\/strong> (a difficulty or obstacle<\/strong>) with the dollar strengthening since his U.S. presidential electoral victory, and emerging market currencies were further rattled by his warning of a 100% tariff on BRICS nations for a common currency plan to challenge the dominance of the U.S. dollar in global trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even before fears about Mr. Trump\u2019s generally protectionist stance on trade matters materialise<\/strong> (become actual or real<\/strong>), India\u2019s goods trade story is sputtering<\/strong> (struggling or failing to progress<\/strong>). Record trade deficits and import bills are going to show up in this quarter\u2019s current account deficit, which is expected to double from around 1.2% of GDP in the second quarter. Services trade is still throwing up a surplus but the uncertainty around the H-1B visa regime will be a key monitorable<\/strong> (something that can be watched for developments<\/strong>), despite Mr. Trump\u2019s latest soothing comments on the system. The previous RBI Governor, Shaktikanta Das, did well to forthrightly<\/strong> (directly and honestly<\/strong>) dismiss the BRICS currency as just an idea in the air, and stress that India has no de-dollarisation agenda. The government must also issue an unequivocal<\/strong> (clear and unambiguous<\/strong>) statement to this effect in public fora and in diplomatic parleys<\/strong> (discussions or negotiations<\/strong>) to put the issue to rest. It is true that the currencies of other emerging markets have taken a bigger hit and a falling rupee bodes well for exporters, but India also needs to worry about importing inflation, especially on inelastic<\/strong> (items whose demand doesn’t change much with price changes<\/strong>) items such as edible oil and crude petroleum. Moreover, foreign investment flows are uncertain as is the U.S. monetary policy outlook for 2025. There is also a limit to the extent the central bank can deploy forex reserves to manage the rupee\u2019s trajectory, and the Finance Ministry has conceded that recent exchange rate movements cramp the freedom for monetary policymakers. India\u2019s present economic woes are linked to domestic drivers such as faltering consumption and reluctant investments. With the rupee coming under pressure, the country\u2019s external resilience could be tested as well in 2025, and policymakers must gear up to manage this new risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Upskill yourself and enhance your vocabulary knowledge.
