The baht opened at 33.50 per USD on 25 Sep 2026, with a 24-hour range of 33.45-33.60 (TTB). The dollar is expected to firm, pressured by higher oil (WTI above $93, Brent above $105) and rising US bond yields. Markets give about 69% odds of a Fed hike in October and 50% in December. For an importer, check dollar-denominated costs and fuel budgets; for an exporter, the stronger dollar may help margins. Keep pricing and hedging under review for the coming weeks.
