The Kenyan shilling was stable against the dollar on Thursday in spite of demand from retail importers buying dollars to stock shelves for the festive shopping period. At close of trading the shilling was quoted at 102.20\/50 to the dollar, the same as Wednesday’s close but weaker than last week\u2019s close of 102.10\/102.30.
\nThe dollar declined against a basket of currencies on Thursday, pulling further away from the 14-year high it set earlier this week as traders booked profits and brushed off mostly upbeat U.S. economic data. The government said new orders for U.S. capital goods rose more than forecast in November and that the economy grew faster in the third quarter than it had estimated. Jobless claims, however, rose to their highest since June. EUR\/USD was up 0.51% at 1.0480, off Tuesday\u2019s fresh 14-year low of 1.0349 while GBP\/USD slipped 0.21% to 1.2327, still close to Tuesday\u2019s one-month low of 1.2310.<\/p>\n
