Market Outlook
Highlight
1 - 7 August 2016
Last Week: The Thai baht gained against the U.S. dollar because of capital inflow
and a weaker in the U.S. dollar. The Fed left interest rates unchanged at 0.25-0.50%
in the meeting on Wednesday (27/7) and U.S. GDP released at a slower pace than
expected in the second quarter. The yen also gained after the Bank of Japan (BOJ)
disappointed market expectations for stimulus on Friday (29/7). The euro was
supported after gross domestic product rose than expected in the second quarter.
This Week: We will focus on the Bank of Thailand (BOT) Policy meeting on
Wednesday (3/8). Moreover, we will focus on the Bank of England (BOE) rate
announcement on Thursday (4/8), amid expectations that the central bank will step
up monetary stimulus to counteract the negative economic shock from the Brexit vote.
In addition, we are also focus on the U.S. economic reports such as U.S. ISM data on
both manufacturing (1/8) and service sector activity (3/8), U.S. nonfarm payrolls and
unemployment rate (5/8).
USD
Last week, the Dollar index opened at 97.531 on Monday (25/7), which was higher
than the previous close at 96.916 on Friday (22/7). The USD was supported by
better US economic data. US Preliminary PMI Manufacturing by Markit rose to 52.9 in
July, from 51.3 last month, regarded as the highest level since October 2015.
Furthermore, Ms.Christine Lagarde, Director of IMF, commented in Beijing that the
global GDP growth forecast this year was downgraded by 0.1% to 3.1% because of
global concern over Brexit. Higher global risks together with better US economic
figures lead to a strengthening of the Greenback. However, after the FOMC’s meeting
during 26-27 July, the Dollar index was sharply dropped. FOMC held interest rate at
the same level as expected, also mentioning about US stronger labour market and
moderate GDP growth, but investment is still fragile. As a result, FOMC will closely
monitor global economic activity and rate hike would be gradual. Undoubtedly, this
message made investors disappointed after many analysts expected that FOMC will
hint timing of next rate hike to be in September. Moreover, on Friday (29/7), US GDP
in Q2 was announced at 1.2%, much lower than forecast at 2.6%. During last week,
the Dollar index was trading in range of 95.384-37.569 and closed at 95.53 on Friday
(29/7).

Comments: In this week, the Dollar index tends to depreciate against major
currencies, owing to fragile US economic data. This week, the main focus is on
personal income (2/8) and unemployment rate (5/8).
EUR & GBP
Last week, the euro opened at 1.0968/70 USD/EUR on Monday (25/7), slightly
depreciated from the previous week closing level at 1.0973/75 USD/EUR in the wake
of shootings that took place on Friday in Munich. The Munich-based IFO economic
institute announced on Monday (25/7), its business climate index, based on a
monthly survey of some 7,000 firms, fell to 108.3 in July from 108.7 in June.
However, the euro gained against the dollar on Thursday (28/7) after the U.S.
Federal Reserve stopped short of signaling a near-term rate rise. The federal labor
office showed the seasonal adjusted jobless total fell by 7,000 to 2.682 million and
the jobless rate remained at the record low of 6.1%, the lowest level since 1990. On
Friday (29/7), German retail sales fell by 0.1% on the month in June but a stronger
than yearly forecast rise suggested consumer spending, which is expected to drive
growth this year, remains a pillar of support for the economy as foreign trade
weakens. Last week, the euro traded between 1.0950-1.1197 USD/EUR and closed
on Friday (29/7) at 1.1170/72 USD/EUR.

Comments: The euro is expected to appreciate against the dollar after the Federal
Reserve's statement was seen as increasing the possibility of a September rate hike
.While the pound sterling is expected to depreciate against the dollar as uncertainty
over the Brexit. This week, the market will focus on the Bank of England’s rate
decision on Thursday (4/8). The euro is expected to be traded within a range of
1.0900-1.1250 USD/EUR while the pound sterling is expected to be traded within a
range of 1.3050-1.3350 USD/GBP.
AUD & NZD
At the beginning of the week, the Australian dollar steadied at 0.7468/70 USD/AUD
as investors waited ahead of inflation data later this week which could cement the
case for another rate cut as early as next month. With Iron ore looking weak as
supply comes back into the market and lack of demand continuing to weigh on the
market, Australia was still in the middle of tough economic situation. However, the
Aussie jumped to a high of 0.7567 USD/AUD from 0.7500 levels after the release of
CPI on Wednesday (27/7); the core consumer prices gained more than expected
last quarter, which rose to 1.7%. The Aussie continually strengthened on Thursday
(28/7), benefiting from weakness in the USD after the Fed failed to hint at rate hike
in September. However, on Friday (29/7) the AUD slightly dropped against the
greenback after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) disappointed investors who were expecting
on something more aggressive in order to lift the country out of decades of
deflation. During a week, the AUD move in range of 0.7417-0.7610 USD/AUD and
closed on Friday at 0.7505/07 USD/AUD.

While NZD is one of the best performing currencies last week, the NZD opened on
Monday (25/7) at 0.6970/73 USD/NZD. The NZD was supported by the weaken
dollar as the Fed was in no rush to raise rates, moreover, the search of the yield
helped to keep the AUD and NZD buoyant. During a week, the economic data came
out mixed; 2Q exports rose 4% YoY to NZD 13.1 billion in June, while building
permits in June was -16.3% from -0.9% in prior month, and business confidence fell
to 16 in July from 20.2 in June. The NZD this week move between 0.6955-0.7228
USD/NZD and closed on Friday (29/7) at 0.7104/09 USD/NZD.

Comments: The main focus in Australia will be the outcome of the RBA’s Board
meeting to be announced on Tuesday (August 2), which the RBA is expected to cut
rate by 25bp to 1.5%. Aside from the RBA, the main focus in New Zealand in
coming week will be on labor costs reports released on Wednesday (3/8). The RBNZ
will hold its meeting on August 13, which is also expected to cut rates to a record
low. The AUD is expected to move in range of 0.7400-0.7650 USD/AUD while the
NZD is expected to move in range of 0.6950-0.7250 USD/NZD.
JPY
The Japanese Yen (JPY) opened at 106.62/64 JPY/USD on Monday morning (25/7),
depreciating from Friday (22/7) closing level at 106.11/14 due to the appreciation of
the US dollar. However, the major focus of investors toward the JPY was on the
Bank of Japan Monetary Policy Meeting on Friday of 29 July 2016. After the meeting,
the Bank of Japan (BOJ) kept interest rate unchanged at -0.1%, but doubled loan
limit from 12 billion USD to 24 billion USD in order to support the economic recovery
and to prevent bad consequences which could possibly occur if the United Kingdom
may leave the European Union (Brexit) in the end. The BOJ also remained the
quantitative easing at 80 trillion JPY per year, and expanded the limit of the ETF
funding. After the result was announced, the JPY was traded to the strongest level
at 102.85 JPY/USD before it gradually depreciated owing to the disappointment
from many economists about the similar monetary policy made. On the same day,
Mr. Haruhiko Kuroda, the BOJ Governor, emphasized that BOJ would employ the
easing monetary policy in order to drive inflation rate to targeted level at 2.0%.
Additionally, the JPY gained in this week after the Japanese Ministry of Finance
announced Trade Surplus at 692 billion JPY which was higher than the expectation
at 474 billion JPY. During this week, the JPY moved between 102.85 and 106.53
JPY/USD before it closed at 103.64/66 JPY/USD.

Comments: The Japanese Yen tends to move between 100.00 and 103.50
JPY/USD in this week due to the depreciation of the USD and the BOJ monetary
policy which is not likely to have more easing policy.
THB
Last week, the movement of the THB was weighed by capital inflow and a weaker in
USD. The THB was opened on Monday (25/7) at 34.98/35.01 THB/USD slightly
appreciated from previous closed level at 34.95/98 THB/USD. Initially, the THB was
pressured by a bullish dollar trend after recent pack of strong U.S. economic data.
On Wednesday (27/7), The Ministry of Commerce reported that the Thai exports fell
less than expected in June, helped by shipments of cars and gold, but demand from
some major markets remained weak. Exports declined 0.1 percent from a year
earlier, whereas Imports slump 10.1 percent. The Ministry of commerce also
expected the economic in second half of 2016 will be better from rebounding in
agricultural goods and oil price. The THB was gradually strengthened at the end of
the week after there was no new hint on FOMC meetings and disappointing BoJ
monetary policy meeting. The THB was closed at 34.82/86 THB/USD and varied
during the week at 34.82-35.08 THB/USD.

Comments: The stronger trend of the THB could stay longer than we expected due
to the capital inflow and uncertainty in global economic. This week, the 7th Aug
referendum on the draft constitution will be on investors’ radar as well as U.S labor
data scheduled on 5th Aug. In addition, The Bank of Thailand Policy meeting on 3rd
Aug will generate slightly affect to the market. We believe that the THB will be more
persuade to the investors in short, but if the referendum result was disappoint the
market, we could see a heavy sell in THB at the beginning of next week. We
expected the range of the THB will be 34.65-34.92 THB/USD
