USD/SGD breaks below 100-day moving average

The nominal effective exchange rate is above the mid-point of the appreciation policy band.

DBS Group Research reported:

USD/SGD broke below its 100-day moving average around 1.2260, its support in the first three days of this week.

More importantly, the SGD nominal effective exchange rate is now above the mid-point of its appreciation policy band, where it should be in an improving outlook environment.

Against this background, there is no reason to expect the source of yesterday’s optimism to be excluded.

OCBC Treasury Research meanwhile noted:

The SGD NEER is creeping nearer the extreme strong end of its fluctuation band again given the prevailing market conditions with the index currently around +1.23% above its perceived parity (1.2385) with the extreme boundary expected at around 1.2200.

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.
