The Rupee opened slightly weaker on Tuesday, weighed down by uncertainty over whether ?the U.S. and Iran can reach a diplomatic resolution to end ?the war, with likely importer hedging adding to the pressure. The currency climbed to a one-month ?high of 95.1175 before encountering importer-led dollar demand amid companies ?hedging future payables. The trader said that the rupee sustaining at around current levels ?would ?be difficult unless oil risks recede. Oil prices inched higher after tumbling in the previous session, with concerns persisting over Middle East supply disruptions on uncertainty over whether the U.S. and Iran can make a deal.

The dollar index bounced from a 1-1/2-month low to 99.98. Oil prices rebounded 1% on Tuesday from a plunge in the previous session, fuelled by concerns that ?Middle East supply remains at risk as a diplomatic resolution to the U.S.-Iran war that has disrupted shipments still seems unlikely. Front-month Brent futures rose $1.12, or 1.3%, to $84.89 a barrel by 0355 GMT after dropping 7% in the previous session to a three-week low.......
