Peso rallies after Fed rate cut

The peso rallied to the 46-per-dollar level after the US Federal Reserve slashed its target interest rate to nearly zero.  Strengthened to that level for the first time since September, the peso closed at 46.90, gaining 0.50 from Wednesday's finish at 47.40.  The currency was also bolstered by strong foreign exchange remittances from overseas Filipinos ahead of the Christmas holiday break.
