No he would get 1 less if you want to use a ST as the example, unless the op is visiting Thailand. The op is saying the baht has devalued against the USD due to the current political situation in Thailand. (I assume that's what he means) If it becomes chaos there, it would spike the value of the USD against the baht for sure. Great for buying the baht, and if it did hit 40, I would, but not so great for selling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherOneAmerican Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 The Baht lost 20% against the Dollar/Pound/Euro in the last year, who would have guessed that? It is entirely possible that it will lose another 20% in the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 USD borrowing and the USD interest rate and UsA GDP Growth drive this relationship. Thailand is like a mouse trying to push an elephant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipperylobster Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Even if it did....the imports, as well as hotels, bars, and gals....would raise their prices shortly thereafter. Worse...the this...the baht will recover, but the prices will remain high. Better to have the baht stable, and the tourists dwindle. That makes for a good deal.

thailiketoo Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Is the thb now linked to the US dollar or not? No. From 1956 until 1973, the baht was pegged to the U.S. dollar at an exchange rate of 20.8 baht = one dollar and at 20 baht = 1 dollar until 1978. A strengthening US economy caused Thailand to re-peg its currency at 25 to the dollar from 1984 until July 2, 1997, when the country was stung by the Asian financial crisis. The baht was floated and halved in value, reaching its lowest rate of 56 to the dollar in January 1998. It has since risen to about 30 per dollar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_baht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
