The baht and the South Korean won led gains among Asian currencies in an overall positive session on Tuesday as the dollar lost ground after US Federal Reserve officials signalled their rate-tightening cycle was nearing its end. The baht rose 0.8% in its biggest intraday jump in a week. After trading below 35 to the dollar for several days, it was quoted at around 34.80 in offshore markets on Tuesday. Meanwhile, regional equities also got a lift as hopes of further stimulus plans in China boosted risk appetite. Seoul and Taipei jumped over 1.5%, while stocks in the Philippines and Indonesia rose over 0.6%. (ICE BANGKOK)
