Currency News, Research and Forecasts for United States Dollar and Thai Baht
Whenever you are interested in an exchange rate you are actually interested in two currencies due to the fact that the value of a currency must always be quoted in comparison to a second currency.
So it follows that if you are determining the best time to transact, in this case the USD vs THB, you should pay attention to both United States Dollar and Thai Baht news and forecasts.
United States Dollar (USD) - Market news and forecasts
2018 has been a good year for the dollar; certainly much better than 2017, in which the world’s reserve currency lost 10 percent of its value on a trade-weighted basis. Entering the third week of November 2018, the dollar stood nearly 5 percent higher than its level on January 1st. The dollar benefitted in the month leading up to this report from Brexit uncertainty in Europe and from a collapse in the oil market, which saw its value rise against petro-currencies.
Seasonality becomes an important supporting factor for the dollar approaching year-end, and especially in November. Since 2010, the dollar has averaged trade-weighted gains of 1.8 percent in November and 0.2 percent in December.
In September, Citibank said of the dollar’s 6-12-month outlook that 3-4 percent upside was likely, followed by an 11 percent loss in the long term. It predicted EUR/USD climbing as high as $1.30, from levels in the high $1.13s at the time of writing.
Like Citi, ING remain long-term bearish on the dollar. ING isn't ruling out interventions and jawboning from Washington aimed at weakening the dollar. President Trump clearly would like a far weaker currency.
J.P. Morgan said in November that the dollar would be worth slightly more in the first half of 2019, before weakening slightly in the second half of the year.
Thai Baht (THB) - Market news and forecasts
Entering the third week of October, the baht is one of the best performing currencies of the year, being unchanged against the US dollar, at a level of ฿32.50, and having gained more than 4 percent and 9 percent against the euro (฿37.50) and Australian dollar (฿23.20) respectively.
The baht’s overall performance in 2018 shines relative to its peers, many of which have lost considerable value due to this year’s emerging market currency crises and massive amounts of US protectionism, which threatens global trade.
With Thailand soon likely to announce its first interest rate hike since 2011 (in September, two of the Bank of Thailand’s seven decision makers voted to hike), the outlook for the baht in the months ahead remains good and further strength should not be a surprise.
