“August 2026: Baht Weakens – Gold Consolidates – Thai Stocks Pause – Global Oil Surges” : SO OK TRADING : 1 August 2026

 
Thai Baht (USD/THB)
Current Situation: Trading within 33.30 – 33.70 THB/USD, pressured by strong USD and high oil prices. Key Factors:

US inflation data keeps the Dollar Index strong
Elevated energy prices weigh on Thailand’s trade balance
BOT maintains low interest rates, leading to capital outflows Outlook: In H2 2026, the baht is likely to weaken further compared to regional peers. Tourism recovery provides some support, but overall risks remain tilted toward depreciation.
