Dollar steady as Fed's Powell says higher rates may be needed
dollar held steady on Friday, on pace to finish the week strong, after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the central bank may need to raise interest rates further to ensure inflation is contained, but promised to move «carefully» at upcoming meetings.

FM Sitharaman refutes reports claiming import tax cut on locally manufactured EVs in India
Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday said that there is no proposal before the ministry to lower import duty on electric vehicles. A Reuters report earlier in the day claimed that India is working on a new electric vehicle policy that would slash import taxes for automakers that commit to some local manufacturing, following a proposal by Tesla which is considering entering the domestic market. The policy being considered, the report said, could allow automakers to import fully-built EVs into India at a reduced tax as low as 15%, compared to the current 100% that applies to cars that cost above $40,000 and 70% for the rest. Tesla first tried to enter India in 2021 by pushing officials to lower the 100% import tax for EVs.
