The local currency ended lower by 44 paise at 70.90 against the US dollar amid a strengthening greenback and sharp decline in equity markets yesterday.

On the international front, crude oil prices are currently in the red on the back of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries’ (OPEC) failure to reach a consensus on an oil production deal.

Meanwhile, the talks will continue with non-OPEC allies on Friday, an outcome of which may drive crude oil prices in coming days.
