Pakistani Rupee Makes a Huge Recovery Against All Major Currencies

Pakistani Rupee (PKR) has been volatile since the beginning of the current week. On Monday, PKR lost against several major currencies in the interbank market, posted blanket gains against all major currencies on Tuesday, and showed mixed results on Wednesday. Today, however, was another good day for the Rupee, with improvement seen against all major currencies.

Against the US Dollar, however, PKR seems to be holding on to its position. PKR gained 25 paisas against the US Dollar (USD) today, after posting a gain of 10 paisas yesterday and gaining 15 paisas the day before, which came after a loss of 4 paisas on the opening day of the week.

PKR closed at Rs. 160.28 to the USD on Thursday (28 January) compared to Rs. 160.53 on Wednesday, which was an improvement upon the exchange rate of Rs. 160.63 on Tuesday. This was an improvement upon Rs. 160.79 on Monday.
