TTB reports the baht opened at 33.50 per USD, up from Friday's close of 33.52, with a 24-hour range of roughly 33.35–33.70. The dollar rose about 0.3% over the week, its fourth straight weekly gain. Markets price an 80.6% chance the Fed holds rates in October and a 70.2% chance of a 0.25-point hike in December. Foreign investors sold a net 9,505 million baht of Thai equities in the week of 5–9 Oct but bought 5,122 million baht of Thai bonds. For an importer or exporter, this is a small daily move; if you have USD payables or receivables, check your hedge or quoted rate against this range before pricing or paying.
