On the foreign exchange market, Pakistani Rupee edged higher against the US dollar during last week\u2019s trading activity settling at 154.69. Year-to-date Rupee has experienced double digit gains &#8211; +10.66%.<\/p>\n<p>The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) reported that during the previous week\u2019s trading session the Pakistani Rupee was traded at Rs 156.00 against Rs 154.30 in the currency market.<\/p>\n<p>Emerging market currencies, especially Asian currencies experienced a healthy rally driven in part by the short-term progress made in the US \u2014 China trade talks. In the long-term, market sentiment has not changed, as currency traders remain cautious ahead of the 15 December scheduled US tariff hikes on China imports.<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 249px;\" width=\"596\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"175\"><strong>USD\/PKR previous four days:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"175\"><strong>Rate &#8211; Average<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"175\">12\/6\/2019<\/td>\n<td width=\"175\">154.99<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"175\">12\/5\/2019<\/td>\n<td width=\"175\">155.11<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"175\">12\/4\/2019<\/td>\n<td width=\"175\">155.15<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"175\">12\/3\/2019<\/td>\n<td width=\"175\">155.21<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>In the week ahead, another key market themes like the trade talks, UK election and monetary policy decisions can stir the market volatility.
