Currencies: Singapore Dollar (SGD) Will Go Down Against The U.S. Dollar (USD)

The Singapore dollar (SGD), like all currencies, is going to go down against the US dollar (USD), because the US dollar (USD) is going to go much higher. 

Singapore doesn't like to talk about its debt but Singapore has debt, too. The IMF says that the Singapore debt is over 100 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). There is serious debt here. 

Now Singapore would say yeah, but we got a lot of asset, too. They do. There's no question about that. Once interest rates start going higher, normally, your debts get worse and your assets don't get better so the Singapore dollar (SGD) is going to suffer too, but it's mainly because the US dollar (USD) is going to be so strong when people start looking for a safe haven.

Singapore Will Be Affected If The World Is Slowing Down

Singapore is doing well, many things are going for it at the moment. If the world economy is slowing down, I know Singapore is going to be affected. The last time we had a slowdown, Singapore came through very very well (as did China), partly because they both had saved a lot of money for a rainy day. So the last time we had a rainy day they started spending the money and Singapore and China came through much better.

This time around there is more debt everywhere, including Singapore so Singapore will be affected the next time we will have a problem and so will China.
