An analyst forecast the rupiah would trade between Rp18,000 and Rp18,320 per dollar in the week of 2 to 6 November, with a weaker rupiah possible. The forecast cites a stronger US dollar, with the dollar index expected to range between 101.20 and 103.20, and speculation that the Fed could raise rates later this year.
A stronger dollar and a weaker rupiah would raise the local cost of imported feed inputs such as corn and soybean meal for Indonesian buyers. The forecast is a short-term expectation rather than a confirmed move.
