In early trading today, the rupee drops 2 paise to 86.55 against the US dollar.
The rupee pared its initial marginal gain and slipped 2 paise to 86.55 against the US dollar in early trade on Wednesday as the positive sentiment in the domestic equity markets was negated by elevated crude oil prices and massive withdrawal of foreign funds.
At the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee opened at 86.50 and touched 86.45 against the greenback in initial deals. However, the local unit soon pared the gains and traded at 86.55 against the dollar, 2 paise lower from its previous close.
