(what makes you think that will ever happen again? it will stay at 50+ for a long time to come, that new south indian dude at RBI has a policy, just read that on their website + your Mr. Lingi aims to make a free float currency in neat future....WAKEUP DUDE!!!)

  9. Sid,

    Somethings here ..

    If crude goes down to 30$, then our crude outflows will be much lesser and will be balanced by FII outflows.

    Re will start to appreciate, if crude goes below 40, because our current account will also start moving to surplus rather than a deficit.

    By -ive inflation, i do not mean deflation, but because of a higher base effect YoY inflation will come close to 0 or even negative.

    Yeah Lungi is not cutting the price now, but in one way that is a good thing. We are getting a huge current account surplus. Which makes rupee appreciate, which makes crude even cheaper. Let them cut after the election, buy BPCL stock till then.

  10. Good. Now can you explain how did it reached from Rs38/$ to Rs50/$ in >12 months and still falling..?

  11. okay here is my currecy theory.

    Currency = Export Inflows - Import Outflows + Investment Inflows

    Rs. went from 38 to 50, because our export inflows went down because of the jittery global economy, out investment inflows, turned negative to become FII outflows. But out import outflows were still pretty much the same.

    However, if our Crude Import outflows go down to such a level that it balances FII outflows and lower export inflows. Rupee will start to appreciate.

    I am predicting a Rupee appreciation around 40$ on crude.
