Indian Rupee dives a new record low against dollar

Market Live: Nifty hovers above 11,350, Sensex up over 300 pts; FMCG stocks rally
 
Well the PSX fell by another 850 points today. From 40,000 points it is now around 33,000 in a matter of a few days. This is pathetic and shows the Clowns in IK government are killing the economy.
 
That is counter intuitive since you just admitted that the Indian Rupee just grew stronger from 75 to 70 now.
Not really, in 2 years it went from 60 to 75 and then 70. It's a descending trend, a simple oil price increase will screw up rupee. I still remember when it was 45 during the India Shining days.
