July 31 (Reuters) – Emerging market currencies were set for their most productive month this year, as the dollar is on track to record its worst month of the decade due to doubts about a US economic recovery, while a recovery in Chinese manufacturing activity helped the riskier bets.

The MSCI index for emerging market currencies gained 0.3% on Friday and 1.5% in July as confidence in the reserve currency eroded.

The dollar fell to a low of two years a day after U.S. President Donald Trump raised the option of delaying November’s presidential election, moments after knowledge showed that U.S. GDP. I had the fastest rate since the Great Depression in the quarter.

A weaker U.S. currency and excess liquidity stemming from stimulus packages in developed markets have boosted buying interest in emerging market currencies.

The South African rand increased slightly, outperforming its peers in July, as it appreciated the rand’s performance differential, or carry, avoiding focusing on the country’s developing fiscal fragility.

The Turkish lira rose at the beginning of the four-day holiday and reduced market liquidity. It has recently been affected by considerations of the depletion of foreign exchange reserves and costly government interventions to stabilize the currency.

The Russian ruble has largely outperformed its peers during the week and month, however, analysts have the worst oil value forecast, the possibility of additional rate cuts, and the hypothesis of more U.S. sanctions are not the only reasons for their weakness.

“The fall of the double took it out of its overall diversity of volatility and the movement came here along with movements in the Turkish lira and the South African rand, suggesting that the ongoing correction of stocks and stocks around the world could be behind us. Tatha Ghose, Commerzbank’s emerging market and currency analyst, said Tatha Ghose.

Data showing that Chinese factories intensified operations in July for the fifth consecutive month on the prospects for electrical and pharmaceutical products also supported the climate threat.

Stocks in the developing world were set to clock their biggest gains since April on improving economic indicators and global stimulus steps, but caution prevailed due to surge in COVID-19 cases in hotspots including Brazil, India and Russia.

The Hungarian forint is expected to surpass the central and eastern European institutions in July, with the maximum strengthening of the region’s currencies, particularly after European Union leaders reached agreement on the 750 billion euro coronavirus recovery fund ($889.50 billion) early last week.
