Krungsri expects the baht to trade between 32.75 and 33.30 per dollar this week (7-11 Sep), after closing at 32.93 last week. Key drivers: US consumer price data due late in the week, which will shape whether the Fed hikes on 16 Sep, and the ECB meeting on 10 Sep (expected to raise rates to 2.50%). Thailand's current account deficit narrowed to USD 1.6bn in July, and the BoT says policy is still fully accommodative and not the time to cut rates. For importers and exporters, price quotes and FX hedges should use this range as the working baseline, with the Fed decision on 16 Sep as the next swing point.
