Investing.com — Most Asian currencies sank on Monday, while the dollar rose to a five-week high as a stronger-than-expected U.S. inflation reading drove up fears that the Federal Reserve could keep raising interest rates.

Concerns over worsening economic conditions in China also kept sentiment towards Asian assets dim, especially amid reports of a looming default for one of the country’s largest real estate developers.

The and rose nearly 0.2% each in Asian trade, hitting their highest levels since early-July after strong and inflation readings for July.

The higher readings pushed up concerns that the Fed will need to maintain its hawkish stance for longer than expected to bring down sticky price pressures.

The prospect of rising U.S. interest rates boosted the dollar and Treasury yields, and kept investors shy of high-risk Asian markets. With U.S. interest rates set to remain at over 20-year highs until at least early-2024, Asian currencies are unlikely to see any relief in the near-term.

Concerns over China saw the sink 0.5% and come within sight of a nine-month low. The also sank 0.2%.

Indian rupee flat ahead of inflation cues

The moved little on Monday as investors awaited key and data for July, due later in the day.
