from Trade and Tariffs with Fexingo: International Commerce, Trade Wars, and Global Supply Chains · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics of currency hedging in international trade, using the recent surge in South Korea's KOSPI and the strong US dollar as a real-world case study. They explain how exporters like Samsung and Hyundai protect profits when the won weakens, why small importers get crushed without hedges, and what the trade-weighted dollar index at 119.3 means for global supply chains. Packed with specific numbers from June 2026, this episode shows why hedging is no longer just a finance department concern. #CurrencyHedging #ForeignExchange #TradeFinance #StrongDollar #SouthKoreaExports #KOSPI #Samsung #Hyundai #Won #TradeWeightedDollar #SupplyChainRisk #EmergingMarkets #Exporters #Importers #Economics #GlobalTrade #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
