Group 1: Currency Appreciation and Economic Impact - The recent appreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar (NTD) against the US Dollar has been significant, with a cumulative increase of approximately 9% between May 2 and May 5, and a single-day surge of 5% on May 5, causing shockwaves in global financial markets [1] - Currency appreciation can be detrimental for export-driven economies, as it makes export products more expensive, potentially leading to a long-term decline in exports and negatively impacting economic stability and employment [3] - Taiwan's economy is heavily reliant on exports, with total exports exceeding $430 billion in 2023, accounting for 58% of its GDP, which is significantly higher than most countries [5] Group 2: Hong Kong Dollar Stability - The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) has remained stable within the range of 7.75 to 7.79 HKD per USD, largely due to its pegged exchange rate system, which has been in place since October 17, 1983 [7] - The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has intervened in the market by absorbing USD sell orders to maintain the HKD's stability, injecting a total of 116.6 billion HKD into the market from May 2 to May 5 [7][8] - The demand for HKD has surged due to increased IPO activities in the Hong Kong stock market, with 147 companies applying for listings by the end of April, and the need for companies to convert USD to HKD for dividend payments [10] Group 3: Broader Currency Trends - Many Asian currencies, including the NTD, have experienced appreciation, while the offshore RMB also saw an increase during the May Day holiday, indicating a broader trend in the region [5] - The ongoing inflation pressures in the US, driven by tariffs and rising costs, limit the Federal Reserve's ability to lower interest rates, which keeps investors inclined to hold USD assets [12]
