EricTh Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 If you look at the trend during the last 5 years, it's quite plausible to drop that much in the next 5 years. https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=GBP&to=THB&view=5Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swissie Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 There is no Algorithm or any person born by a woman that can project the value of anything traded in open markets with such accuracy over a given time period. As far as the £ is concerned, I will say this: There are a lot of "negatives" already priced into the £ in connection with "Brexit". But in case of a "no deal" Brexit, most likely the £ will weaken further. This is the scenario currently expected within the "currency trading community". - In case the Brits prepare for a "worst case scenario" (managing to avoid major disruptions of the British Economy, avoiding shortages etc etc), making British Exports competitive on world markets. This would be the time the £ has hit "rock-bottom", spiking up quickly. It all depends of the "preparedness" of the Brits and how they fit into their "new world". - A bad time to sell the £ at this time. But there are a lot of folks around (with cash in their hands) to buy the £ at "rock-bottom" price if there are indications that the Brits will be able to digest the Brexit within a reasonable time-frame. (I myself have a little cash in my hands to buy the £ if the time is right). Strictly my personal assement of short term things to come. No idea where the £ will be 5 years from now. Neither does anyone else. With or without Algorithms. The Clairvoiant Gipsies from Romania all work for Goldman Sachs and live in NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveAustin Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 That chart is tosh. It'll be way oversold (as now) after the brexit thing, and once people realise that it is not the end of the world and certainty, wait for the rebound. I would be more interested in the correction of the baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardColeman Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 If the baht/£ hits that low, I can safely predict there will be ZERO exports from Thailand to the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinnock Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 There's obviously two complex situations impacting on this - the UK and Thai economies, and as balance of payments are a big factor in the value of a currency, the Thai tourist numbers have a significant influence. Brexit will run it's course, and nobody can accurately predict that. But in Thailand it may be easier to predict. The major industries related to automotive and other manufacturing will decline due to increasing competition from Vietnam and other emerging countries such as Indonesia, Philippines, but as manufacturing involves two-way transactions (import of raw materials/export of products) the downward pressure on the Baht due to a shift in balance of payments will be minimal. Domestic debt will rise and household spending will fall -but again minimal impact on the Baht, perhaps even a benefit due to reduced imports. But tourism brings in foreign currency with minimal outflow, so any increase in tourism will directly strengthen the Baht. So as the US/China trade war fades (after Trumps second term) and as the Indian economy continues to grow, Thai tourism will inevitably rise. (There's only so many places 2 billion people can go on holiday) So the Baht will remain strong, the Pound will dip through the Brexit chaos with a long, slow recovery, and we'll all be long dead before the Pound recovers to a reasonable level. So get used to the new reality and develop a liking for Mama noodles with no honey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnapat Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 A couple of days ago, after the slightest hint that a deal might be possible, sterling rose by more than 1%, not a lot but shows to me that if a miracle of a delay to article 50 or an agreement on some kind of deal were possibly there would bd sn immediate jump in the value of the pound.
