# Baht market: Opens at 33.43, stronger as the dollar weakens after easing Middle East concerns; expected range 33.30–33.50

> The baht opened at 33.43 per dollar, compared with the prior close of 33.55, and dealers expected a 33.30–33.50 range. The report linked the dollar’s broad weakness to falling oil prices and reduced concern about a new US attack on Iran.
