Monday’s strong baht showing to rise Bt30.66  from Bt30.67 per US dollar on Friday, Krung Thai Bank's chief markets strategist Jitipol Puksamatanan said on Monday.

 

The baht has signed to continue its strength following capital inflow rising, although the resumption of US-China trade talks also points to a relaxing.

 

“We forecast the baht ranks between Bt30.60 and Bt30.70 per US dollar on Monday and will trade between Bt30.40 and Bt31.90 per US dollar in this week," he said.

That's in class with weather forcasts along the lines of "might rain and might not"...

Not another gloom and doom topic on Thaivisa, We all know the exchange rates are not in our favour and we don't need reminding everyday that it isn't.

There is nothing we can do about the strength of the BAHT let's  move on to other more interesting topics.

I don't know.  In another thread I said the pound had been going down against the baht for 20 years and I started a giant argument.  https://walletinvestor.com/forex-forecast/gbp-thb-prediction

OK, we’re painfully aware of these foreign inflows that have devastated our currencies.  Now tell us WHO it or they are.

i can make an educated guess...

The losers in this manipulation are the Thai workers who will lose their jobs or their small businesses.
Back to normal, the Baht is totally overestimated!

Right! The only problem is that Thailand is an exporting nation!

Not gloom and doom for those of us who transfered wealth to thai banks many years ago. Of course the Tv financial gurus saying " never put even $1 into a thai 3rd world bank"  did not do to well. 

 

many more years of the baht destroying most foreign currency still to come..bring it on ????

Tourism will surely drop if this continues and a lot of the economy is dependent on a steady floe of tourist.

One certain culprit since end of May has been foreign investors. Huge purchases by global tracker funds after MSCI increased Thailands weighting in various indices in May.

                                  Entirely without prejudice 

 

It has nothing to do with Brexiteers, It has everything to do with Powerful Remainers. Ask the Bank of England it was knocking the pound down the second the vote was in and for no reason other than punishment for voting the right way.

Those same powerful remainers are continuing to hold up and screw up Brexit thereby denying democracy.

 

You think you have it bad! Try living in this god forsaken country where food prices have deliberately gone through the roof, council tax is another mortgage, and we are having our ass taxed off us at every turn on top of which having worked hard for 47 long years saved all we could after tax in order to try to enjoy a few luxuries in retirement but instead now having to spend those savings to support a disgracefully low pension because the said savings attract 0% interest.

Do yourself a favour come back for a month and see just how far your money will go, and then just maybe you will stop bitching about something you appear to know very little about.

And that goes for the rest of the Oh woe is me brigade

 

Yes 38 baht is a far cry from 55 just a short time ago and it is making life difficult, but brexiteers did not cause it. Currency manipulation by the banks is doing it. Why is the baht so strong and the £ so weak? It is because it is politically expedient to carry out an illegal action and ignore it’s illegality.

 

Why is the Australian dollar, and many other currencies so weak? Is that also because of Brexit? Or does it have something to do with bankers and politics???

Come on I know the coffee is total c—-p in Thailand but if you wake up and sniff hard enough some of you might just smell it

Read a bit and come back with some facts.  https://tradingeconomics.com/thailand/foreign-direct-investment

 

In the 2019 World Bank Group report, Thailand garnered a score of 78.45 out of 100 in the ease of doing business. It is ranked 27 out of 190 economies and second among its ASEAN neighbors, after Malaysia. Thailand is an upper-middle income country.

A bit like saying there is a 60% chance of rain this week. What can one even say?
