the carnage for em currencies continue.
are the central banks of the worst hit countries doing anything? yes - hike int rates, "increase onshore supply of dollars" (i wonder what that means??) and threat to use reserves to intervene. no one toyed with pegging so far. QUOTE To stem the slide, Brazil's central bank on Thursday warned it would use its foreign exchange reserves to defend the currency. These strong words bought some respite to the real, which bounced more than 5 percent and off a record low of about 4.248 per dollar hit earlier on Thursday. Brazil isn't the only country bank taking action to shore up a battered currency. Indonesia's central bank on Friday said it will announce new steps to increase onshore supply of dollars – part of a move to support the rupiah, which has shed about 20 percent of its value this year. Federal Reserve Board Chairwoman Janet Yellen speaks during a news conference December 17, 2014 at the headquarters of Federal Reserve Board of Governors in Washington, DC. "What happened yesterday was that we had a classic central bank warning from Brazil which is similar to rate hikes in Turkey in 2014 and a rate rise in Russia late last year amid a ruble crisis," Piotr Matys, emerging market currency strategist at Rabobank, said. http://www.cnbc.com/2015/09/25/its-carnage...ng-markets.html |

The question is how much is needed to stabilize the myr? 300 to 500 basis point? at least 300bp to have any meaningful impact under current conditions.but that will surely strangle the economy, will take it to recession. when zeti said, "Everyone has to adjust. Individuals need to learn how to conserve and economise", i think she is telling people to accept the rm depr, will not go away so easily, purchasing power reduced, get thrifty. even if bnm hike rates, it will be small steps, 25bp, maybe 2-3 times. so, i don't see how the rm can return to 4.0 or better anytime soon. more likely a scenario of "do nothing" while the slide continues.

If what it says is true, then RM may have perpetual "potential" to go further... Remember when RM hit RM3.80 many people think it would be the limit ? They waited and thinking "everything will be fine" but eventually RM fell further. Same scenario again now. Is RM4.40 now be the new limit and "everything will be fine" again ? |

If you believe that, then, your only possible conclusion is Malaysia's economy is heading toward a crash. The only question left is whether Malaysia's economy can recover from the crash without Extra Oil Money?? And, how long will it takes?? 3 years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, 30 years... For most people, 20 years or longer = never. The other question that a person need to asked is Are you PREPARED for a crash that takes X years to recover?? Whatever you believe X to be.
