The Thai baht opened the trading session firmer against the US dollar, settling at 33.48 baht per dollar.
Market analysts identified a support level at 33.35 and resistance at 33.58, suggesting a narrow trading range for the currency in the immediate term.
This modest appreciation stands in contrast to recent movements in other Asian currencies.
The Indian rupee weakened by 15 paise to close at 94.65 against the dollar, while Sri Lanka’s rupee also depreciated, closing at 335.15/40.
These divergent moves highlight the fragmented nature of emerging-market FX flows, where local central bank interventions and domestic liquidity conditions often override broader regional trends.
The baht’s relative stability may reflect ongoing efforts by the Bank of Thailand to manage volatility amid global uncertainty.
