📈 What’s Driving the Exchange Rate?

Several economic factors are influencing the USD to PKR rate:
Stable Forex Reserves: SBP’s foreign exchange reserves remain steady, which is helping PKR maintain its level.
Import Demand: Increased import payments could lead to higher demand for USD, putting pressure on PKR.
Remittances: February’s remittance inflows have provided some support to the rupee, preventing sharp depreciation.
Global USD Strength: The US Dollar Index (DXY) remains strong in international markets, impacting global currencies, including PKR.


🔮 Forecast for the Day:

📢 Analysts predict minor fluctuations throughout the day, with PKR likely to stay within the 279-282 range unless there’s unexpected demand for USD.

📉 If demand for USD rises, PKR may weaken slightly, possibly pushing the open market rate above 282 by closing time.
📈 If forex inflows improve, PKR might strengthen, keeping the exchange rate below 280 in interbank trading.

💡 Traders & investors should watch SBP updates, remittance inflows, and international trends for real-time impact.
