Peso ng Pilipinas humantong sa bagong record low na P61.30 laban sa US dollar

Humantong ang peso ng Pilipinas sa P61.30 laban sa US dollar noong Martes, Abril 28, ang pinakamababang antas sa kasaysayan dahil sa hindi tiyak na sitwasyon sa global dahil sa hidwaan sa Gitnang Silangan.

Ayon sa data mula sa Bankers Association of the Philippines, nagsimula ang peso sa P60.8 laban sa dollar noong Martes bago ito bumagsak sa P61.30. Nagkaroon ng pag-apresyasyon ang lokal na pera noong Pebrero hanggang P57.6 noong Pebrero 28 bago ang mga pag-atake ng US sa Iran, ngunit patuloy na nagweweaken mula noon.

Sinabi ni Michael Ricafort, chief economist ng Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation, na ang paglaban ng peso ay dahil sa kakulangan ng progreso sa negosasyon sa pagitan ng US at Iran, pati na rin sa patuloy na pagsara ng Strait of Hormuz.

Bagama't nakabubuti ito sa mga pamilya ng overseas Filipino workers at mga kumakita sa dolyar dahil sa mas mataas na remittance, nagiging mas mahal ang mga importasyon tulad ng langis. Ayon kay JC Punongbayan, resident economist ng Rappler at assistant professor sa University of the Philippines School of Economics, "Para sa ordinaryong Pilipino, mahalaga ito dahil ang mas mahinang peso ay nagpapamahal sa mga imported na produkto, gasolina, inputs sa kuryente, at ilang pagkain. Lahat nito ay magpapa-init pa ng inflation, na nasa upward trend na."

Inaasahan ng Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas na aabot sa 6.3% ang average na inflation ngayong taon, na maaaring lumala dahil sa pagbagsak ng peso.
