THE Singapore dollar hit a new all-time high against the United States dollar yesterday, and is likely to rise even further in the coming months.
This came a day ahead of a crucial meeting by the US Federal Reserve which could further weaken the ailing greenback. The Singdollar has been appreciating strongly since the start of the year as the US dollar continues to slide.
However, analysts said the trigger for yesterday's jump was closer to home: Australia's surprise decision to hike interest rates by a quarter point.
This sent the Singdollar soaring as high as $1.288 to the US dollar, before settling at about $1.2886 later in the day.
In the longer term, the currency could jump to as much as $1.20 against the US dollar going towards next year, said DBS Bank senior currency economist Philip Wee.
Investors have been snapping up the Singdollar and other Asian currencies over the last few months, as they flock to emerging markets seeking higher returns than what the slumping greenback and stagnating US economy can offer.
At the same time, Asian central banks have been raising interest rates to counter fears of rising inflation in their fast-growing economies. But higher rates also have the effect of attracting more money into the region.
Yesterday, after the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) said it would raise interest rates as a pre-emptive attack on inflationary pressures, the Australian dollar climbed to US$1.003. It was only the second time, after last month, that the Aussie dollar has been worth as much as the US dollar.
Regional currencies also rallied against the greenback following the announcement. For example, the Thai baht and the Malaysian ringgit both gained against the US dollar.
The lively action in the currency markets yesterday was 'all about the RBA's decision', said Mr Wee.
'Australia is a proxy for Asia, and its worries about inflation reflect other Asian central banks' concerns as well,' he said, noting that the Reserve Bank of India also hiked interest rates yesterday.
Another factor which could push the Singdollar up in the medium term is the much-anticipated monetary easing expected to be announced by the Fed tomorrow, Singapore time, economists said.
This second round of quantitative easing - where the Fed pumps hundreds of billions of dollars into the system by buying up bonds - is likely to result in an even weaker US dollar, which in turn will fuel excess liquidity to Asia.
But the impact of this move on the Singdollar may be limited, said analysts.
One reason is that this round of easing is likely to be a more modest affair than the first. At a forum at the National University of Singapore yesterday, former Federal Reserve chairman Paul Volcker said that he did not expect 'overpowering results' from the Fed move.
Also, the market has been anticipating the easing for months now, and has already responded by factoring the move into currency prices, said Barclays Capital economist Leong Wai Ho.
Yesterday marked the second time in three weeks that the Singdollar has broken records. It rose to a high of $1.289 against the greenback on Oct 14, when the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) unexpectedly announced that it would allow the strengthening Singdollar to appreciate further.
A DBS report noted recently that as much as US$2.3 billion (S$2.96 billion) has been flooding Asia every day since April last year.
UBS Bank currency strategist Nizam Idris said the MAS monetary policy statement last month had also made investors look at the Singdollar as a 'one-way bet'.
'Many investors looking at the Singdollar are betting that it will only rise against the US dollar,' he said.
