T Rowe favours Thailand, Malaysia bonds on scope for rate cuts
T. Rowe Price Group Inc. likes local bonds in Thailand and Malaysia, betting that further monetary easing will outweigh currency gains as a key driver of investor returns. Malaysia's central bank has potential to deliver several more interest rate cuts after its first policy easing in five years earlier this month, while persistent deflation in Thailand should extend support for its debt despite already-low yields, said Leonard Kwan, a Hong Kong-based portfolio manager at the US asset manager. Kwan, who manages the firm's Emerging Markets Bond Strategy fund, added he prefers medium-term Thai bonds and longer-dated notes in Malaysia. The fund had assets worth $581 million as of June 30. Tailwinds from the dollar's weakness against the Asian currencies will be "less powerful than what we saw year to date,' Kwan said. He expects a "consolidative period for the dollar over the next three to six months' as bearish wagers on the greenback appear excessive. Kwan's comments signal a rethink among investors as the dollar has rebounded in the past two weeks, clawing back some of this year's steep losses as fresh inflation data cast doubts on the outlook of US rate cuts. Meanwhile, signs of strong consumption and a resilient labor market also helped ease concerns about a tariff-induced recession and a sustained decline of American exceptionalism. Despite the latest gain, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index is down 8% this year. Joining a broader Asian currency rally against the greenback, both the Thai baht and Malaysian ringgit have risen over 5% since 2025 began. The currency gains have been a key catalyst of the performance of the two nations' local-currency bonds. Thai debt has generated year-to-date total returns of 13.8% this year, with 10.2% for their Malaysian counterpart, Bloomberg data show. Elsewhere in the region, Kwan said he also likes Indonesian bonds of medium-term maturities, as the firm sees another two-to-three 25-basis-point rate cuts in Southeast Asia's biggest economy. The Indonesian rupiah, in contrast, is Asia's worst-performing currency this year, down 1.3% versus the dollar. - Bloomberg

This Week Brings New ETF Offerings Across Multiple Sectors
Major investment firms launched a flurry of new ETFs this week, with T. Rowe Price Group Inc. (TROW) expanding its active equity lineup and specialized providers rolling out leveraged single-stock products. These new ETFs show how firms are responding to investors who want both safety and opportunity in today's market and creating tools for long-term growth while also catering to short-term traders. T. Rowe Price added two transparent active equity ETFs to its lineup Thursday, bringing its total active ETF roster to 19 funds, according to the company's announcement. The T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Premium Income ETF (TCAL) combines high-quality stocks with covered calls to maximize income while preserving principal, carrying a 0.34% expense ratio. The T. Rowe Price Hedged Equity ETF (THEQ) seeks long-term capital growth with reduced volatility by combining the firm's U.S. Structured Research Equity Strategy with a derivatives hedging approach designed to protect against market downturns, according to the press release. The fund has a 0.46% expense ratio and is managed by Sean McWilliams, who brings 15 years of investment experience. Westwood Holdings Group introduced an innovative approach to global investing with the Westwood LBRTY Global Equity ETF (BFRE). The fund employs TOBAM's methodology to systematically reduce exposure to companies subject to authoritarian governments while maintaining broad market exposure, according to a Thursday announcement.
