Global markets at a glance
European stocks dropped on Monday in thin volumes, with
one benchmark index hitting a four-week low as investors
fretted over lack of progress in resolving Washington's
budget standoff. The euro zone's blue-chip Euro STOXX 50
index was down 1.1 %, at 2,897.38 points. UK's FTSE 100
index was down 0.8 %, Germany's DAX index down 1.1 %
and France's CAC 40 down 1 %.
The Nikkei share average dropped to a one-month low on
Monday as the lack of progress in resolving the U.S.
budget standoff left investors increasingly frustrated. The
Nikkei dropped 1.2 % to 13,853.32 after falling to as low as
13,841.93, the lowest level since Sept. 6. The index fell for
a fourth day.
Wall Street Update
U.S. Democrats and Republicans came no closer on Sunday
to a budget agreement that would end a government shut-
down, let alone reaching a deal on the U.S. borrowing limit
by Oct. 17 to avoid what would be an unprecedented de-
fault. U.S. Standard & Poor's 500 e-mini futures dipped 0.1
percent in Asian trade after the cash index ended down
0.9 percent on Monday and dropped for the 10th time in
the past 13 sessions. U.S. Treasury futures added 4-1/2
ticks.

CURRENCY ROUNDUP
The RBI will look at easing restrictions on the forex futures
market once the rupee stabilizes. RBI is also in talks
with SEBI on making the dollar-rupee over-the-counter
and futures market trades on a delivery basis.
In line with equity market, the rupee snapped its three-day
winning spree and was lower by 34 paisa at 61.78 in late
morning trade today on renewed dollar demand from
banks and importers amid its higher value overseas. The
rupee resumed lower at 61.50 per dollar as against the last
weekend's level of 61.44 at the Interbank Foreign Ex-
change Market. It dropped further to 61.85 before quoting
61.78 per dollar at 1045 hours. It moved in a range of
61.50 and 61.85 per dollar during the morning deals.
The Indian Rupee appreciated by 0.5 % on Friday's trading
session and closed at 61.44 on the back of struggling Dollar
index. Further, Foreign fund flows and selling of dollar by
companies supported currency to gain strength. Addition-
ally, RBI measures to attract more Inflows and ease in Geo-
political tensions acted as positive factors for the Indian
Rupee. However, weak economic data from the country
curbed sharp appreciation in the Indian Rupee.
The dollar skidded to near an eight-month low on Tuesday
as the U.S. government shutdown entered its second
week, leaving investors on tenterhooks as politicians in
Washington made little headway in agreeing a deal to
avoid an historic U.S. debt default. The dollar was steady at
79.979 against a basket of major currencies after slipping
0.2% overnight to not far from an eight-month trough
touched last week. Against the yen, the greenback held
steady at 96.80 yen after falling as much as 0.2% to 96.55
yen, hitting an eight-week low earlier in the Asian session.
It dropped 0.8 percent overnight to mark its biggest de-
cline against the Japanese currency since Sept. 18, when
the Federal Reserve shocked investors by deciding to con-
tinue its stimulus program.
