Major stock markets in the Asia-Pacific region thrived broadly on Monday (19 August). The Nikkei, however, plunged more than 500 points after midday due to a sharp rise of nearly 1% in the yen. With Thailand's 2Q GDP beating expectations, Thai stocks continued to grow by more than 1%.

The increase in the yen swelled to nearly 1% during the Asian session, resulting in USD/JPY’s fall to 146.09. Opening 198 points lower this morning (19 August), the Nikkei slightly added 62 points at one point in the early session to peak at 38,125. It then turned soft, concluding the midday down 15 points, or less than 0.1%, at 38,047. It last printed at 37,485 with a slump of 577 points, or 1.5%, after midday.

Thailand's SET continued to climb 1.3% to 1,319. The Thai parliament announced that Paetongtarn Shinawatra was elected as the new prime minister, and her father, former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was granted a royal pardon. Thailand's 2Q GDP spiked 2.3% YoY, beating market expectations of 2.1% growth, and the previous value was revised to 1.6% growth. Thailand also narrowed the forecast range for economic growth in 2024 to 2.3%-2.8%, compared to the original forecast of 2%-3%.
