Singapore dollar stuck in tight trading range

Risk currencies are likely to remain out of favour.

IG Markets Singapore said:

The Fed launched its much-anticipated QE4 last night which saw the dollar weaken against major currencies before regaining some ground.

The Bernanke Put, as Fed quantitative easing is referred to, now sees a total of $85 billion a month injected into the US economy, some of which will find its way into Asian currencies.

But this news did little to turn the head of the Singapore dollar as it remains stuck in a tight trading range, hugging the $1.22 threshold.

As we ease into the holiday season, and with a fiscal cliff deal not yet agreed, risk currencies are likely to remain out of favour for now.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
