   When the value of the dollar increases on international currency markets, it’s expected that

   (a) real GDP necessarily will increase.
   (b) net exports will decrease.
   (c) aggregate demand will increase.
   (d) aggregate supply will decrease.
   (e) All of the above.

   (b) because as the dollar appreciates (read: becomes more expensive) in terms of international currencies two things happen:
   (1) it makes foreign products seem cheaper than before, thus propping up imports
   (2) it makes domestic products seem pricier to foreign consumer, thus lowering exports
   Since net exports = exports – imports, hence net exports decreases.

   How does momentum and volatility work together in the currency markets?
   Is it better to be high momentum and high volatility or high momentum low volatility to keep up on daily currency levels that change ? I am not into trading per se but am interested in learning it . Serious inquiries only and knowledgeable enquiries only . I am trying to learn and not wasting time. Keep web sites to a minimum unless it explains completely these 2 questions.

   All the currencies used today by every country are in fact worthless. None of them have any backing. Their perceived value lies in their relative scarcity in comparison to other currency.

   Real money has real value. A hundred years ago, virtually all countries were using gold, or silver, or both for money. There were no exchange rates. An ounce of gold in London was equal to an ounce of gold in Berlin, or Rome. Politicians ticked people into accepting unbacked paper currency, which enabled them to steal the people’s wealth through inflation. The rest is history.

   How do I invest in world currency markets?
   I hear this is a good place to invest where you can make a tremendous amount of money in a short amount of time.

   How does this work? What do I research? Any information would be helpful.

   Thanks.

   While I do not believe that there is any way to make a tremendous amount of money in a short amount of time unless you really know what you are doing. You would need to buy currency future contracts, and the best place to research currency trading is the FOREX and the CME. Keep in mind that if you want to trade Currency in the U.S. you can only do so through a dealer that is registered with the National Futures Association (NFA).
