So the longest winning steak is 282 to 1 dollar 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The state of journalism is terrible if this is considered news . It’s been 282 since forever. Since 2020 dollar appreciated from 168 to 284. And depreciated from 283 to 282 and you consider that as a streak ? 🤣🤣
Govt don’t want rupee to appreciate in big ways as it will lead to higher imports. It is for this reason SBP buying from open market to maintain present trend of dollar/ rupee parity .
You call the jump from 283 to 282 an 18th winning streak? How comical
