Changes In US Dollar Do Have A Major Impact

By Alxa Roffel


The value of a currency is determined by the supply and demand of the currency in that particular country. When a currency of a particular country is high in demand by the traders, tourists travellers, investors and so on the value of the currency automatically increases. Here are some of the factors that have both negative and positive impact in the value of the currency of a particular country.

Increase in the interest rates indicates high demand for the currency. Higher interest rates do attract several foreign investors, as they prefer currency with higher interest rates and tend to invest more in them. This process can be compared with the process of looking for banks that provide you with higher interest rates when you have a savings account with that particular bank. Higher interest rates increase demand for the currency and its results in the increase in the value of the currency.

This does benefit in the increase in sales of the US companies, which in turn creates opportunity for more jobs and consumer spending. As the economy of a country fails the trading decreases, weakening of the value of the currency also helps to counter the trade deficit, which is considered as the most troublesome aspect of US economy.

Weaker dollar also promotes tighter monetary policy. Increase in the foreign goods also because inflation, likewise the weaker currency does lead to inflationary condition. The prices of luxury commodities are higher and when the dollars start falling, inflation surely hits the within the upcoming months.

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.

Wars does drain economy, it does possess a major threat to a country's economy. Wars are expensive and the expenses cost in the war is paid by the taxpayer itself. Wars do affect the growing economy of a country, there is no economic growth found during in a country during a war, thus it lowers that value of the currency.

Unnecessary expenditure done by the government also affects the economy of the country. If the government keeps spending money in programs which are not necessary but costs a lot of money, does affect the value of the currency. The larger the government grows the more the value of the currency reduces.

In order to ensure the value of the currency is high, it is important to have a good economic growth. When there is a reduction in the house market, there is also a decrease in the seller price too. When people realise that the cost has decrease, buyers tend to spend less, resulting in reduced consumer spending. Hence it has direct effect on the economy of the country, reducing the value of the currency.
