ISLAMABAD - Pakistani Rupee bounces back against US dollar yet again.

The decline in greenback, which settled at Rs148.70 in the interbank market, also dictated the open market, forcing the dollar to shed its value by Re0.50 to Rs149.50.
According to currency dealers, stability started returning to the money market as external payments had been made.
