Q Smart Limited - Explains the US Dollar's Influence Worldwide

LUXEMBOURG CITY, LUXEMBOURG / ACCESSWIRE / Septemer 7, 2017 / Since the end of World War II, the U.S. dollar has established itself as the world's most trusted currency. Most international trade is conducted in the currency, it is the standard unit of measurement for major commodities, and it comprises the largest percentage of foreign reserves held by governments and private institutions across the globe. Experts from Q Smart Limited, a market leading trading platform, recently discussed the dollar's global influence, including the effect it has on foreign economies.

In the United States, a strong dollar results in cheaper imported goods and a lessening in oil prices. It also slows inflation, allowing the Fed more leeway to implement an expansive monetary policy and spur economic growth. Conversely, American-made goods will become more expensive for the rest of the world. Exports are likely to decline, affecting U.S. companies who rely on revenue from international markets. Apple, Proctor & Gamble, and Johnson & Johnson are three examples of corporations that depend on foreign customers for at least 40 percent of yearly revenues.

In emerging economies, the Q Smart Limited team noted that the effects of a strong dollar would vary widely. In Latin America, countries like Chile, Brazil and Venezuela are commodity exporters that will suffer due to less demand, causing commodity prices to fall across the board. In Asia, India, and China are net importers of both oil and commodities that will generally benefit due to the lower costs. They are also large exporters of manufactured goods to the U.S. and will see an increase in demand as American consumers can afford to buy more. Net oil exporters, including Russia and several countries in the Middle East, will face losses as oil prices decline. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries generally responds by cutting supply in hopes of increasing demand and rebounding prices. Without these efforts, the currency of these nations will fall in value significantly relative to the U.S. dollar. Lastly, countries in the Eurozone will find it hard to raise prices in the face of a strong dollar, barring dramatic intervention from the European Central Bank. In the past, the ECB has launched initiatives to purchase bonds worth billions of euros to jump-start the economy.
