Understanding Current Economic Conditions & Positioning For The Rest Of 2019

How is that possible? As history has shown us, global economic uncertainty leads to global investors shifting their money to safer U.S. assets which drives up the value of the dollar since dollars are needed (think supply vs demand) to purchase these assets. This is depicted by the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the strength of the dollar against a basket of major currencies. The dollar has held its strength and reamined near the peak its 52-week high. U.S. Dollar Index goes up when the U.S. dollar gains "strength" (value), compared to other currencies. In particular, it has gained 7% against the Euro since it began its ascent last April, and nearly 10% against the Chinese Yuan over the same period.

G20 Finance Heads Renounce Currency Devaluation

From time to time, governments consider it beneficial to have a weaker currency to increase exports as products will become cheaper for the receiving country allowing them to purchase more. However, such a tactic sets competing businesses in the home countries at a disadvantage, thus many economists and world leaders frown on the financial maneuver as it is seen as an attempt by the exporting country to gain an unfair advantage over the competition in the receiving country.

Economic Data Supports Interest Rate Hike

Private sector job growth severely beat estimates, sending the dollar higher against its international counterparts as the stronger the economy is (with job growth being a leading indicator), the more likely the US Federal Reserve is to continue raising the federal funds interest rate.
