The Thai baht opened at 33.46 per U.S. dollar, weaker than the previous close of 33.40. Market commentary attributed the move to risk aversion, Middle East uncertainty and a firmer dollar, while traders awaited U.S. labor data and Thailand’s October inflation report, which was expected to rise to 3.31%.
This is mainly a currency and macro update: a stronger dollar and higher energy costs can raise Thailand’s import bill and feed inflation, but the report gives no direct feed-commodity price signal.
