- A + A BENGALURU (June 24): The Philippine peso fell for the eighth straight session on Friday (June 24) as markets feared a modest rate hike by the country's central bank may not be enough to curb surging inflation, while other Asian currencies rose against a weaker US dollar. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) stuck to a 25-basis-point increase in its benchmark rate on Thursday for a second month in a row, fearing that more aggressive tightening could compromise growth. "Concerns over the gradual pace of BSP hikes, weaker budget balance, as well as policy uncertainty under the new president could be adding to PHP drags in the interim," Maybank analysts said in a note. The peso was on track for its worst week since June 2013. It was down 2% during the week, and hovered at a more than 16-and-a-half-year intraday low notched earlier in the week. The Thai baht was 0.1% weaker intraday, touching a more than five-year low, likely pressured by portfolio outflows, … [Read more...] about Philippine peso on track for worst week in nine years; Asian stocks gain

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Finally, after months of frustration on both sides, Real Madrid appears ready to offload Gareth Bale, with the Welsh winger headed for Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer.
