Latam sees inflation and unemployment prints from BRL and MXN respectively. THB will see a rate decision in which Citi Economics expects no change at 0.50%

It is hard to say exactly what the FX market is prepared for, with regards to the April 2022 MPS.In our view, some market participants will probably be disappointed if there is no upwardre-centring, and the SGD NEER may thus fall in the near term – not unlike what happenedafter Finance Minister announced on 18 February that the GST hike will be delayed andstaggered (therefore reducing the likelihood of an imminent re-centring, compared with ascenario whereby the GST hike will be implemented in July 2022). That being said, if a slopechange was announced in conjunction with a wider band, w...

FX strategyWe like the SGD, since we believe the MAS will not be done with policy tightening,even if it does what we expect it to do in April 2022 (i.e. re-centre higher) and in anycase, it can also crawl higher along the upper-bound of the positively sloped band.We suggest considering a bespoke SGD basket (comprising the RMB, AUD,TWD, USD and GBP). Our USD-SGD forecast for end-2022 is 1.32. We also expectFX forward points to fall further – for example, it will probably not be unreasonable toexpect 12m points to head towards -200 eventually, based on a 1.5% slope.

Model updateWe have refreshed our estimation of the SGD NEER index. Our previous index over-estimated the MAS’s index by around 20bp in recent months.But tracking error cannot entirely explain the overshooting of our SGD NEERindex from the top-bound of the band that occurred a few times in the second halfof March. Thus, we have also revised one of our assumptions for the policy bandparameters. We now believe the MAS raised the slope by 1ppt on 25 January2022 (previous assumption: 0.5ppt), therefore bringing the current slope to 1.5%(previous assumption: 1% slope).We estimate that the SGD...

We recalibrated our SGD NEER model – we updated the weights and revised the slope assumption for January 2022With the slope now at 1.5% by our new estimates, HSBC thinks the MAS will re-centre the policy band higher in AprilWe like the SGD and think FX forward points can fall further

EUR: France Consumer Confidence at 07:45 BST for March. Citi Economics expects confidence to remain relatively unchanged at 95 (vs 98 prior), though risk is of a lower print, given the geopolitical conflict. This would follow last week’s weaker confidence surveys on the back of the Russia/Ukraine conflict as well as high energy prices.

USD: Fedspeak meets consumer confidence:– Conference Board Consumer Confidence at 15:00 BST for March. Citi Economics expects the Conference Board’s measure of consumer confidence to rise modestly to 110.9 in March, in contrast to another decline in the University of Michigan sentiment index. The Conference Board’s measure of confidence focuses much more on assessments of employment conditions, which have been consistently strong. The strength of the labor market is a key factor keeping the Fed less concerned about much weaker activity despite quickly rising interest rates.
