BRENT TECHS, DOLLAR-SING
DOLLAR-SING: The recovery in the euro and the Chinese yuan over the past day
have helped USDSGD to weaken back to a key support level. The pair currently
trades at 1.3390, at the bottom of its recent trading range, with the 200DMA
coming in at 1.3366. A break below this level would reestablish the broader
bearish trend for USDSGD and set up a run at the 50DMA and 100DMA at 1.3262 and
1.3219 respectively.
- Singapore's real effective exchange rate has also recovered during recent
trading, after falling to a 6-year low in February this year. The weak REER,
together with the country's huge current account surplus, which currently sits
at 18.5% of GDP, stands the currency in good stead to outperform its regional
peers over the coming weeks and months, particularly as the greenback, to which
the SGD is loosely pegged, is likely to benefit from further monetary
tightening.
