Exchange Rates and Trade
Factors Influencing Exchange Rates
Currency exchange rates fluctuate mainly due to a combination of factors, including global economic activity, market sentiment, interest rate changes, inflation, trade imbalances, and central bank monetary policies. For example, when a country has a strong economy and rising interest rates, it may attract more foreign capital, pushing up the value of its currency. Conversely, political instability or economic slowdown may lead to currency depreciation. Changes in market expectations and speculative activities can also intensify short-term exchange rate fluctuations.
