Why the Dollar Is Stuck at 119 While Markets Diverge

The US dollar has been hovering near 119 on the trade-weighted index for weeks, yet emerging market ETFs are seeing wild divergence: South Korea is up 12.8% in a week, China is down 0.9%, and Latin America is slipping despite a weaker dollar. Lucas and Luna discuss why the dollar's plateau is masking deeper shifts in global capital flows, the role of energy inflation from the Iran conflict, and what the Fed's latest inflation data means for currency traders. With core PCE at 3.3% and Fed officials signaling 'inflation fight takes priority', the hosts examine whether the dollar's strength has peaked or if it's just catching its breath. #DollarIndex #EmergingMarkets #SouthKoreaETF #ChinaETF #FedPolicy #Inflation #CorePCE #EnergyInflation #IranWar #CurrencyFlows #GlobalTrade #EWY #FXI #EEM #VWO #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
