Emerging Markets Selloff Deepens as Dollar Hits 119

On the debut episode of The Global Economy Podcast, Lucas and Luna examine the broad selloff in emerging-market equities, which have fallen 3-6% in the past week as the trade-weighted dollar index climbs to 119.3. They focus on South Korea's KOSPI — down 5.9% in five days — and discuss how a strong dollar compounds debt burdens for countries that borrowed in USD. They also preview Kevin Warsh's swearing-in as Federal Reserve chair on Friday and the market's repricing of rate hikes, with some forecasters now expecting inflation to hit 6% in Q2. The conversation sets the show's tone: specific numbers, real examples, and a clear-eyed look at what ties global markets together. #EmergingMarkets #StrongDollar #FederalReserve #KevinWarsh #SouthKorea #KOSPI #TradeWeightedDollar #Inflation #RateHikes #BondVigilantes #GlobalMacro #CurrencyFlows #Economics #FexingoBusiness #GlobalEconomyPodcast #LucasAndLuna #MarketSelloff #May1926 Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
