Factors That Determine The Value Of A Currency

By Alxa Roffel


The value of US dollar keeps fluctuating and the currency traders consider dollar weakening as an opportunity. Well there are certain advantages even for the person living in the United States itself. You must understand that there are both advantages and disadvantages of when the value of a currency of a country decreases. Here are some advantages of stated for you.

The weakening of US dollar shows its immediate effect on the costs of foreign goods, as the costs increases rapidly. As there is a huge difference found in the trade deficit due to weaker dollar, the consumers in US are found to import more in comparison to what they export.

The top most country that US gets most of its important is Canada, this what makes the value of the Canadian dollar very essential. Medicines bought from Canada cost you somewhat the same, just as the regular value, along with that the cost of other luxury items imported from Europe also remains the same.

A country runs on the money received from tax payers, if the country is on national debt, it has to be paid by the taxpayer. When the taxes increase, the purchasing ability of the society decrease and this has direct impact on the economy of the country. When this happens, the value of the currency of that country decreases.

One third of the buyers are found to come from Europe, a part of them also comes from Asia and around 15% of them are from Latin American countries. Every time the value of the currency falls and the cost of the house price decrease, the foreign buyers can provide the right support, ensuring there is no major crash found in this industry.

This officially caused problems in the financial markets and thus the Federal had to make changes in the interest rates. In the current situation, inflation is not a very big problem. However, concerning the risks of inflation, Federal Reserve might consider lowering the interest rates more than it is actually needed.

A major part of economy in several countries are influenced by tourism, it also represents a big part of the United States. Not only tourism helps the country to generate huge economic growth but it also helps to provide employment to several unemployed people of the country.

Once the value of the US dollar decreases it is likely to fall again and it can last for longer than people can actually expect. It is also found that the interest rate does play an important role in the increase and decrease in the direction of currencies. The weaker US dollar does have a major effect on the country's economy. However, the increase in the exports and foreign investment does help the US to give rise in the economy and thus allowing the value of the US dollar currency to rise again.
