EMERGING MARKETS-Thai baht, Indian rupee lead Asia FX gains; stocks rebound
* Thai baht set for its worst week in a month * Singapore stocks up 0.5%, headed for worst week in 9 months * Philippines closed for holiday By Savyata Mishra Feb 25 (Reuters) - Emerging market currencies and stocks in Asia rose on Friday, tracking a broader recovery after Russia's invasion of Ukraine sent global assets tumbling in the previous session, although sentiment was still cautious. The Thai baht and the Indian rupee made a swift recovery against the dollar, with both jumping 0.4% each, even as oil prices surged nearly 3%. "I think the baht has now become a barometer of emerging market currencies and its rebound suggests that investors are probably buying the dips," said Margaret Yang, a Singapore-based strategist with DailyFX.
