UOB projects continued range-bound trading for USD/SGD, supported by a stable SGD NEER, even as regional Asian currencies struggle against portfolio outflows and pre-election market uncertainty.
UOB analysts note USD/SGD held a tight range on Monday, with the Singapore Dollar supported by a slightly firmer SGD NEER. They expect the NEER to stay 1.30%–1.80% above its policy midpoint, implying the pair should remain confined near current levels, though broader Asian FX is pressured by portfolio outflows and cautious sentiment ahead of US midterm elections.
