Naam Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Blablablablablabla.. The reality is that Thai economy is going down the drain. It is not because of the rise of the dollar. Today I heard from suppliers that the reason that prices went up (exanple from 18 THB to 45 THB /pc) were due to the rise of the Chinese Dollar... Now we start to import supplies for ourselves and don't give a $#!t about our lying supplier. Thailand is living on a giant soap bubble. It is what I already said in 2010 !!! I predict a dollar rate of at least 39 THB on the dollar before this year ends... Prove me that I am wrong !!! hmmmmm....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeptic7 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Jury still out there. USA economy improving but not great. The employment gains really not up to expectation. There really no inflation at the moment and a strong dollar is bad for the exporters at time when other competing countries have a weak currency and global demand is still very soft. Doubt September and possibly kick the can to next year. Almost certainly will raise this month. 25 basis points, from nearly zero for years now, won't even be noticed and is long overdue. Even if they raised it 50 basis points, which they won't...it would still be historically very low. A hike will bring some stability back to the markets and also prepare for further rate hikes next year. Then watch the baht crumble! Good call. Waaah...I want my candy back!

Thaiaddict01 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 had a financial advisor told me that, currencies is hard to predict so just exchange USD into Baht every once awhile instead of all at once. like it's currently at 36.44, just exchange your USD into segments and spread them out, maybe exchange some now, some a month later etc. so if bhat depreciates then you can exchange more later, if it appreciates then you don't get hit that hard if you exhcnage all the USD now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waldroj Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 stevern It's because everyone is happy! If only this were true - the SET is only reacting to its recent crash - there are some real bargains out there now (if you're prepared to wait a year or so) courtesy of junta-head and his economic skills. All my investments are now long-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemercer Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Chinese interests are behind many big holders of the Baht. It's currently in China's interests to keep the Baht fairly high, so it they will try and hold it reasonably steady as long as they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The baht is currently weaker to the yuan than its ever been. 2 years ago we could buy yuan for 5 baht now its about 5.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
