How the Strong Dollar Is Crushing Emerging Market Exports

from International Business with Fexingo: Global Trade, Cross-Border Deals, and Multinational Operations · host Fexingo

The US dollar hit a 20-year high in June 2026, and emerging markets are feeling the pain. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down how the trade-weighted dollar index at 120 is squeezing exporters from Brazil to South Korea. They look at specific data: Korea's KOSPI down 14 percent in a week, the EEM ETF losing 6.5 percent, and the widening US trade deficit despite record exports. They explore why a strong dollar makes dollar-denominated debt crushing for developing nations, how commodity exporters like Brazil are caught between lower prices and higher borrowing costs, and what the yuan depreciation means for China's export machine. A focused look at one of the biggest macro forces reshaping global trade right now. #StrongDollar #EmergingMarkets #GlobalTrade #USDEuro #TradeDeficit #Exporters #Korea #Brazil #China #Yuan #Commodities #DebtCrisis #CentralBanks #Business #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TradeFinance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
