The baht opened at 33.66 per US dollar on 9 Oct 2026, stronger than the previous close of 33.70. TTB expects a 24-hour range of 33.50–33.80. The move follows a weaker dollar after the US Fed was expected to hold rates this month, while markets price about 81% odds of a hike in December. Foreign investors sold net THB 6.36bn of Thai stocks and THB 682m of Thai bonds the previous day. For importers and exporters, this is a small, short-term move: check your USD payment and receipt timing, but no major pricing change is needed from this single day's data.
