Currency news and forecasts for Australian Dollar and Indonesian Rupiah
Whenever you are researching a particular exchange rate you are actually interested in two currencies as the value of a currency must always be quoted relative to a second currency.
So it follows that if you are determining the best time to transact, in this case the AUD vs IDR, you should pay attention to both Australian Dollar and Indonesian Rupiah news and forecasts.
Australian Dollar (AUD) - Market news and forecasts
17-January-19: The Australian dollar recovered strongly following a "flash crash" in early January which saw it briefly trade at a 10-year low of 67.4 US cents.
By the time of this report, AUD/USD was back at 72 cents and roughly in line with December’s median exchange rate. The Aussie was similarly strong against other major currencies following its mini crash.
Several months ago, most analysts agreed that the Aussie was heading higher in 2019, but things have changed. In recent months, investors have become increasingly certain that no increase to Australian interest rates will be seen until 2020; there is, in fact, now a 25 percent chance of an RBA cut, per derivatives pricing. Inaction on interest rates will force capital away from Australia and towards countries where rates are higher or are expected to increase.
One senior researcher at BNP Paribas said in January that the Australian dollar would “get absolutely crucified and could suffer a 25-30 percent [long-term] fall.”
In opposition to that view, at least relative to the US dollar, was a CIBC analyst, who said that at current levels the Aussie was “very undervalued” and was his “best bet” for 2019. The analyst’s view was based upon there being a positive resolution to the US-China trade spat. The Aussie could be worth as much as 78 US cents in the second half of 2019, the analyst said.
Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) - Market news and forecasts
In 2018 the rupiah shed 6 percent of its value against the US dollar (Rp.14,479), 2 percent against the euro (Rp.16,579) and 1 percent versus the pound (Rp.18,446). It did, however, manage to gain nearly 4 percent against a struggling Australian dollar (Rp.10,212).
Among factors contributing to rupiah weakness in 2018 was the mid-year emerging market currency crisis and a US-China trade war, as well as the firmer US dollar and higher US interest rates, which makes Indonesia’s foreign loan repayments more expensive and risk-adjusted rupiah returns less attractive.
The Indonesian central bank raised interest rates several times in 2018 in an attempt to curb currency weakness but this only proved effective in the final two months of the year, during which the rupiah gained 5 percent against the US dollar.
In mid-December, ANZ’s Head of Asia Research advised making bets on rupiah appreciation for 2019; he described this as one of his “top trades” for the year. The rupiah will be strongly supported, especially in the second half of the year, once the Fed begins to slow down or pause on interest rates hikes, he said.
