BANGKOK: The Thai baht dropped in morning trade on Friday as the US dollar remained supported by a hawkish US rate outlook and the yen weakened to a five-month low after the Bank of Japan held rates steady.

The baht had fallen by 0.24% to 34.58 per dollar at 0231 GMT.

It has weakened 1.2% against the dollar since the start of the year, but is still Asia’s second-strongest currency after the Malaysian ringgit.
