How the Euro Is Gaining on the Dollar Despite ECB Hikes
from Currency Conversations with Fexingo: Dollar, Euro, Yuan, and Foreign Exchange Markets · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna dig into why the euro is strengthening against the dollar even as the ECB hikes rates to combat Iran-related energy inflation. With the dollar index near 100 and EUR/USD at 1.16, they explore how the trade-weighted dollar masks divergent central bank paths, and what that means for emerging market currencies like the Korean won, which has rallied 6.4 percent in a week. They also look at the emerging market ETF bounce, with EEM up 3.2 percent in five days, and ask whether the dollar's dominance is actually starting to fray. Plus, a light-touch moment about supporting the show. Specific, data-driven, and conversational. #Euro #Dollar #ECB #FederalReserve #CurrencyMarkets #FX #EmergingMarkets #KoreanWon #IranConflict #EnergyInflation #TradeWeightedDollar #EURUSD #EMETF #EEM #FXI #EWY #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
