How the Korean Won Crash Is Reshaping EM Currency Investing

The Korean won lost 15 percent against the dollar in early 2026, triggering a wave of selling across emerging-market currencies. Lucas and Luna break down why the won's collapse matters beyond South Korea, how EM currency ETFs like EEM and EWY have responded, and what this means for investors tracking the trade-weighted dollar index. They also discuss the European Central Bank's first rate hike since 2023 and how shifting rate differentials are splitting currency markets. #KoreanWon #SouthKorea #EmergingMarkets #EMCurrencies #CurrencyCrisis #FXMarkets #DollarIndex #ECB #InterestRates #ETFs #EEM #EWY #CurrencyHedging #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CurrencyConversations #MarketVolatility Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
