Huh really? I thought when we buy other currency like USD we are weakening our own currency and strengthening other currency?

mean pap is dumping usd and then buying sgd to prop up sgd.

sinkapore is a laundry hub where money comes in because it is relatively strong. if weaken too much against usd then all money will flee. then no more cheap housing loans liao.

Looking forward with glee and the anticipation on many flying bodies jumping out the window of their fancy condos.

Maybe should buy shares of funeral and undertakers.

I looked at the numbers again, SG is in deep shit but safe from people like Soros.

so we burn one third of our reserves to buy vaccines that have proven thus far to be ineffective?
Whole fucking MOF sleeping on the job?

4% is the interim. It may go as high as 6-8%. And if MAS does not defend the SGD what will happen?

So likelihood SG interest rate may shoot to 7%, which I think will be the highest it will go.

Or nuclear war will come first. USA will not allow anyone to push them off the throne.

I can't decide which number is more impressive :

  1. Singapore spending MORE than Japan to shore up their native currency;
  2. Japan spending that amount and still 23% drop;
  3. 31.5% reserves gone. Implication is that total reserves were only 408 bn at 2021? Either way, that's almost 1/3 of reserves gone. quite a shocking number.
Thanks for the post. :thumbsup:
