Currency Impact on Markets
- Strong USD: Headwind for US exporters, tailwind for importers
- Weak USD: Boosts S&P 500 earnings from overseas
- DXY rising: Often coincides with risk-off sentiment
- Carry trades: Low-yield currencies fund high-yield investments
- Central bank policy: Rate differentials drive currency flows
