The baht opened on 9 Sep 2026 at 32.89 per US dollar, slightly stronger than the prior close of 32.93. TTB expects a 24-hour range of 32.70 to 33.00. Markets are watching the US Fed meeting on 15-16 Sep (CME FedWatch puts a 60% chance on a 0.25% hike) and the BOJ meeting on 17-18 Sep, where a hike to 1.25% is expected. For importers, price quotes and dollar-denominated contracts, a stronger baht lowers local-currency costs; for exporters, it trims baht revenue. Review FX exposure and pricing before those meetings.
