The Thai baht closed trading today, December 9th, at 31.81 baht per U.S. dollar, strengthening from its morning opening level of 31.90 baht per dollar.
A currency trader at Krungsri Ayutthaya Bank reported that the baht traded between 31.81 and 31.91 baht against the dollar throughout the day. The Thai currency gained ground against most currencies in the region and continued to track global gold prices, according to the trader. The baht’s performance reflects the broader sensitivity of emerging market currencies to global economic signals.
Thailand’s bond market was relatively quiet on December 9th, with foreign investors recording net purchases of approximately 200 million baht. Market participants are now focused on the outcome of tomorrow’s, December 10th, U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting, as reported by the trader. Expectations are for the Fed to lower its benchmark interest rate by 0.25%.
The currency trader forecasts that the baht will trade in a range of 31.70 to 31.95 baht per dollar on Thursday, December 11th.
