    companies that have a lot of dollar debt raise your hands

    Plus you have a hawkish US Fed. Economists are divided if the BSP will be raising the rates soon.

    actually market reaction to the Fed's rate hike last wednesday was negative

    it was the reaction to the ECB last thursday that drove the euro lower which drove the dollar higher

    so yeah it also has to do with dollar strength

    --

    yes according to a bloomberg survey 5 out of 8 economists are expecting the BSP to raise rates on wednesday

    Sec Pernia said inflation has already peaked

    if the BSP also believes that, then it's unlikely they'll do anything

    Local juice maker halts production >> Manila Bulletin Business
    Columbia International Food Products Inc., one of the country’s biggest candy manufacturers, has phased out its sugar-sweetened beverage product line, after it was rendered unviable following the implementation of higher taxes under the TRAIN Law.

    Company president Reynaldo Y. Go said in a press conference they have decided to stop producing its beverage product “My Juice” because the government was asking them to pay P7.20 in excise tax for its P7.05 juice.

    7.20 peso tax on 7 peso juice
