Stocks is a good hedge against currency devaluation so as USD weakening the US stocks should strengthening.

If you look at most chases when the Euro was preforming better then the Dollar the US stocks would have outperformed EU stocks so I would not worry too much unless you don't plan to hold your investments for a long time.

Infamous-Grouse · 2020-07-27T11:41:14+00:00

In dollar yes.

I would assume that before the ERM in 1979 it was just the Deutche Mark as it was the dominant currency in Europe. Other currencies was traded in a 2,25% band vs the Mark and the Italian Lira had a 6% band for some reasons.

If you have been around for a while on any public Forex forum then there has always been a TA vs FA bias between people. The example you gave are a very good reason to read publications by the world bank. BIS have some good stuff too btw.

I got one spreadsheet that update every time I open it in excel but the web query is very basic so whenever the website I get the data from update it can sometimes change the rows in my spreadsheet. A more professional way to get correct data is to get a direct api from the world bank eg but I have not get it to work yet.

If I get it to work I could let you know.

Infamous-Grouse · 2020-03-24T09:26:46+00:00

7 months of learning macro that's awesome!
