The central bankers are ruthless and will resort to everything and anything to maintain control and stay in power. "Great" Britain???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

The £ will recover after Brexit. Quiet so. But if the Chinese keep flocking here no chance. The value of the Baht is maintained by the demand for the Baht. Also foreign currency reserve which Thailand has plenty and covers all it's foreign debts. Retirees 20,000B having to be kept in a Thai Bank is very helpful to the foreign reserve and deserved a greater % interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadiseLost Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 33 minutes ago, asiamaster said: Total BS. The Euro is as much down to THB as the Pound is. Brexit and a massive trade deal with the US will strengthen the pound. The US$ has been relatively stable against the Baht. I arrived in Thailand 2004. exchanged USD for 45 THB, GBP for 85 THB. Both have lost, but the Pound has really been hammered against all currencies. Trump is well on the way to destroying the USD, a perfect storm is brewing and only a fool would make a prediction more than a month ahead. As for trade deals, who would trust or believe anything the USA promises today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrahamzvi Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 17 hours ago, PingRoundTheWorld said: There's no such thing as financial prediction - between now and 2023 plenty of unforeseen events could happen. I wouldn't be surprised if the baht gets weaker (against USD/Euro) rather than stronger. As for the UKP though - who knows... It depends very much on Brexit. If no Brexit the Pound will rise to at least Bht 45 (depending on the strength of the Baht against the US$).If Brexit with an agreement, probably the same as now and possibly a moderate rise to about Bht42. If no deal Brexit the Pound will fall to some Bht 35 in the short term. In the long 0r medium term it depends on how the British economy performs, In my view negatively, unfortunately!

Caine Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 13 hours ago, ParadiseLost said: How does majority deserve caps when it was 51%? That would infer almost half the population was against Brexit - only those with the mentality of a 13 year-old got carried away by the facebook hype, helped along by meddling Russians and lying idiots like Boris the UK Trump.... Those with brains voted against it, so the only logical conclusion is there are slightly more dumb people in the UK than intelligent... Once Brexit is cancelled the Pound will revert back to 50, which is still ridiculously low against the manipulated Baht. That bubble will burst soon as well and then we could be back to 70 again. Everyone's guess is equally valid... I thought they had weakened Chang lately, whatever the strength you’re definitely drinking too much of it.

The EU are not the source for this prediction, so is definitely not EU or any other “propaganda”. The EFA are an independent org who advise corporate clients who make large currency purchases. These people need good information to make decisions (obviously they don’t ask brexiteers for that). Smart corporate purchasers rely on the advise of orgs like the EFA. The EFA have a good track record predicting currency movements. GBP will continue to fall. Anyone with GBP to exchange would probably be foolish to wait.

Don't believe the Brexiter propaganda, they said the pound would recover within 3 weeks of the referendum, now we are down >30% against the Baht. You are hopelessly wrong, the pound will crash even further if we leave the EU and rise if we remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puck2 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I'm on the side of those predicting the currency value is like scrying/soothsaying. I'm very surprised that the Brexit lovers who believe in an upward rate of the GBP in the future don't consider that there could be a S(mall)B, not a GB.???

It's the people who live there on a fixed income who it really hurts. That was when the Thai Stock Market crashed and that rate only lasted for a few days The current and future rates don't just affect people who live here - if affects Tourists to - their holidays are more expensive - given the GBP - Euro and Aussie $ rates at present Thailand can expect a very sharp fall in visitor numbers - people will be looking for destinations that they can afford to visit For example when I used to come here on Holiday the rate was between 58-62 to the Pound - I could afford to come 2-3 times a year - at this rate it would be once a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any spare dosh goes into PMC ounce and physical gold. A crash for all the world currencies is due. Agree but hope you are not talking about physical gold in Thailand? The only ones who win there are the gold shops. I have had an account with Bullionvault for years, I suggest you look into that. I bought 1 kg in 2007 and sold in 2012, doubled my investment. Since then I have been waiting for the next opportunity but at the moment it is too risky for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
