The Indian rupee opened at 2 months low at 66.95 per dollar on Wednesday. It has opened lower by 8 paise against previous close of 66.87.
Bansi Madhavani of India Ratings said, "An uptick in US retail inflation along with firming up of oil prices have rekindled rate hike fears across markets." "The underlying data being more supportive for a Fed rate hike.
The near-term prospect of a hike is reflected in the rising dollar index and higher short-term US treasury yields."
