Rupee ends a tad higher as dollar slips after US midterms

What's behind this

The rupee rose modestly against the U.S. dollar, gaining 17 paise to settle at 94.58 according to one report, while another source said it closed at 94.64, up slightly from the previous session’s 94.74. Both accounts link the currency’s improvement to a positive domestic equities market and to sentiment boosted by the outcome of the U.S. midterm elections, which helped the dollar slip.
