The Rise of the Dollar: Exploring the Factors at Play in the Renewed Strength of the Dollar

This was an episode (open.spotify.com/episode/4gZd0CpqYDGhV58FFP0Kf…) that first appeared on the Gimme Some Truth feed (open.spotify.com/show/7LqSUf8o0YOaLfQZwLNzk5?s…), but we felt the topic was just as important to U.S. expats and Americans living abroad. After all, the currency markets obviously carry international implications. And as Syl points out, the strength of the dollar means it's a great time to be an American traveling abroad (as long as you can get there in a somewhat inexpensive fashion).

Syl Michelin (usexpatinvesting.com/team/syl-michelin), a Chartered Financial Analyst and U.S. expat financial advisor, sits down with Nate Condon (walknercondon.com/our-team/nate-condon) – one of the founding partners of Walkner Condon – to dissect what's happening with the U.S. dollar. Together, they raise the question – what does a strong dollar mean for the markets? As part of that discussion, they dive into why the dollar is so important on the international stage and conjecture about whether the strength of the dollar is due to the dollar itself, or the underperformance of the other main currencies.
