Markets focus on rate spreads and #oilshocks. But $USDTHB began rising months earlier. Thailand's shift to BOP deficits since Q4 2025 signals deeper structural imbalances. External accounts don't create currency weakness—they reveal earlier leverage and policy distortions

The baht falls to a one-year low on expectations of a wider interest rate gap between the US and Thailand as domestic demand comes under pressure from multiple headwinds https://t.co/xkgx9riuYn

A currency is not merely a symbol of economic strength. It is also a reflection of underlying economic realities.
As pressure on the rupee intensifies amid #OilShocks, reserve drawdowns, and rising dollar demand, a larger question emerges: What happens when exchange rates are shaped more by intervention than by fundamentals?
This #CRFExpertColumn by our Research Consultant, Utsav Nayak, examines the deeper structural forces behind the rupee’s depreciation, the limits of reserve-led defence, and why the debate may no longer be about defending a number but understanding what that number is signalling about the economy itself.

The dollar’s rally isn’t confidence—it’s a collateral squeeze. #Oilshocks are forcing rate repricing & deleveraging, driving a liquidity scramble. With bonds & equities both falling, $USD strength signals systemic fragility, amplified by fiscal & leveraged credit risks—not refuge

Rising Middle East tensions and a jump in energy prices have pushed speculators back into the US dollar, marking their first net-long position of the year. No surprise there: the greenback usually shines when global risks rise

I joined @AliVelshi this weekend on "Velshi" @MSNOWNews to talk about the history of #oilshocks and their lingering effect on the #economy and the #stockmarket. History doesn't repeat, but it often rhymes. Here is a clip from our segment.

The Philippines has historically been vulnerable to #OilShocks brought about by global tensions: with nearly 95% of oil imported, the country is widely affected by price hikes in the global market—and with it, the rise of transport fares, freight costs, and even prices of
#SEVENTIES #OILSHOCKS
If we use the 1970s as a playbook for the kind of oil-shock inflationary cycle we appear to be entering, the short-term path for precious metals may unfold in two distinct phases.
Phase 1: Initial Price Pressure from a Dollar Liquidity Scramble
In the early stage of a geopolitical or energy shock, global sovereigns, refiners, and financial institutions face immediate pressure to secure dollar-denominated marginal oil supplies as energy prices spike. Because oil is largely priced in USD, this creates a sudden demand for dollars.
To obtain that liquidity quickly, market participants often liquidate non-dollar assets—including gold and silver. The result can be a sharp but temporary sell-off in both metals, similar to the brief but violent drawdowns seen during previous energy crises. In this phase, gold and silver may experience near-term weakness as the market prioritizes dollar liquidity over asset preservation.
Phase 2: Recognition of Petrodollar Strain and the Safe-Haven Repricing
If the conflict or energy shock persists, the market narrative tends to shift. Investors begin questioning the durability of the petrodollar system—the framework under which most global oil transactions are settled in USD.
At that point, sovereign wealth funds, central banks, and institutional investors increasingly rotate into hard assets that are insulated from currency debasement, sanctions risk, or monetary instability. This transition historically drives a powerful repricing in gold—and often silver—driven by monetary demand rather than industrial demand.
If the current cycle follows the 1970s template, gold’s stronger move may emerge roughly six weeks after the initial shock, suggesting a potential acceleration phase from mid-April onward. Persistent geopolitical uncertainty combined with structurally higher energy prices tends to reinforce inflation fears, creating the conditions for a sustained safe-haven bid in precious metals.
In short: initial liquidation for dollars, followed by a powerful re-monetization of gold once the system stress becomes clear.

Why #gasprices seem to jump out of nowhere? #OilShocks may hold the answer.

Major economies such as the US, China and Russia began to build up reserves after #oilshocks in the 1970s, with China believed to have the biggest oil reserves in APAC at present, notes @kriravi, SVP, Industrial at @FrostSullivanAP https://t.co/WqaD1wuTdo
