Asian currencies gain as dollar retreats; equities rise on Fed easing bets

Asian currencies gained on Monday as dollar weakness offered relief from recent losses, while equities climbed on hopes the U.S. Federal Reserve would cut rates, easing economic pressures amid uncertainty over the new U.S. tariff regime. The Malaysian ringgit led the advance, strengthening 1% to 4.233 per dollar and snapping six straight sessions of losses. The Indonesian rupiah and Taiwan dollar surged as much as 0.7%, and the Philippine peso added 0.57%. The South Korean won and Singapore's dollar edged 0.2% higher. The dollar index recovered marginally on Monday after tumbling more than 1% on Friday when President Donald Trump unveiled sweeping tariffs and after a dismal U.S. jobs report sent traders scrambling to price in aggressive Fed rate cuts. "Investors have shifted focus from trade uncertainties to the impact of the tariffs that have been in place for a while," Maybank analysts said in a note. "For now, the greenback may be caught in a tug of war between growth and inflation concerns that could leave it range-bound, but we look for the eventual slowdown in the U.S. economy and resumption of Fed easing cycle to take the USD lower." Regional equity markets largely edged higher as the heightened prospect of lower borrowing costs helped soothe concerns about the U.S. economy. Seoul and Singapore gained as much as 1% each, and equities in Mumbai, Bangkok, and Manila rose between 0.4% and 0.8%. Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur bucked the trend, slipping more than 0.3% each. This week's ISM services data and jobless claims will be crucial in determining whether the Fed would move more aggressively to support the economy. Trump's tariff offensive hit Asian countries with rates ranging between 15% and 40%. India faces the steepest levies of major Asian economies at 25%, while South Korea negotiated down to 15% after intensive talks. Several regional players, including Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan and Cambodia, secured agreements after weeks of negotiations, leaving markets to reassess which economies face the greatest export disruption. "We think this is a better outcome than what was anticipated earlier, but still the rate of tariff is much higher than the status quo," said Rahul Bajoria, ASEAN and India economist at BofA Securities. Central bank policy remains in focus across the region. The Monetary Authority of Singapore and Bank of Japan maintained current rates alongside the Fed last week. India's central bank meets on Wednesday, while Thailand's rate decision is due next week.

Asian markets fluctuate as traders weigh tariffs, US jobs

HONG KONG: Asian markets flitted between gains and losses Monday (Aug 4) as investors continued to digest last week's tariff blitz by Donald Trump and a US jobs report that fanned fears about the world's top economy. News on Friday that dozens of countries would be hit with levies ranging from 10 to 41 per cent sent shivers through exchanges amid concern about the impact on global trade. With the date of implementation pushed back to Thursday, focus will be on talks between Washington and other capitals on paring some of the tolls back. The pain was compounded later by figures showing the US economy created just 73,000 jobs in July - against 104,000 forecast - while unemployment rose to 4.2 per cent from 4.1 per cent. Job gains from June and May were also revised down by nearly 260,000. The figures stoked concerns that Trump's tariffs are beginning to bite, with inflation also seen pushing back towards three per cent. The reading also saw the president fire the commissioner of labour statistics, accusing her of manipulating employment data for political reasons. Bets on the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates at its September meeting shot up following the jobs numbers, with some analysts predicting it will go for a 50-basis-point reduction, rather than the regular 25 points. Yields on US Treasury bonds fell sharply as investors priced in the cuts. Investors will now be keenly awaiting every utterance from Fed boss Jerome Powell leading up to the next policy meeting, not least because of the pressure Trump has put on him to lower rates. Observers said news that governor Adriani Kugler will step down from the bank six months early will give the president a chance to increase his influence on decision-making. "Fed credibility, and the veracity of the statistics on which they base their policy decisions, are both now under the spotlight," said National Australia Bank's Ray Attrill. "Fed officials, such as New York President John Williams speaking after the data, profess to be open minded about the September Fed meeting, but Mr Market has already decided they are cutting -- ending Friday 88 per cent priced for a 25-basis-points rate reduction." Still, Asian investors tried to get back on the horse after Friday's selloff, with Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore and Seoul up, while Tokyo, Sydney, Wellington, Taipei, Manila and Jakarta were all down. The performance was better than New York, where the S&P 500 and Dow each lost more than one percent and the Nasdaq more than two per cent -- with some also questioning whether a recent rally to multiple records has gone too far. The dollar edged up but held most of its losses against its peers after tanking on the jobs report. And oil extended Friday's losses of almost three per cent, which came after OPEC and other key producers agreed another output hike, fanning oversupply fears owing to the effects of Trump's tariffs and signs of a weakening economy. - AFP
