The pair is on track to gain 0.8% across the week.<\/p>\n<p>The perceived riskier Indian Rupee is trading on the back foot as concerns over growing coronavirus numbers, not just in India, but the US, Australia and Hong Kong drag on sentiment as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>In India coronavirus cases have grown by 26,000 over the past 24 hours, with lock downs being re-imposed in India\u2019s most populous state and in an industrial hub with automakers, drug factories and brewers.<\/p>\n<p>As India\u2019s total coronavirus tally reaches almost 800,000 economically important parts of the country are being put back under lock down orders.

The number of ongoing claims also dropped by more than analysts had forecast suggesting that Americans are being re-hired at a quicker pace. However, these figures could deteriorate again in the coming weeks if cases continue to rise.<\/p>\n<p>Today the US economic calendar is quiet with just factory level inflation numbers for investors to mull over.
