The Exchange Rate

This study investigates the affiliation of various proxies of economic sentiments and the US Dollar exchange rate, mainly focusing on the real effective exchange rate of USD pairing with three other major currencies (USDEUR, USDGBP, and USDCAD). The study has employed Google Trends data of economy optimistic and pessimistic sentiments index and survey-based economy sentiments data on monthly basis from January 2004 to December 2018. The study engaged Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) estimation techniques to evaluate the short-run and long-run effects of economy-related sentiments and macroeconomic variables on the exchange rate. The results from the study found that Economy Optimistic Sentiments Index (EOSI) and Economy Pessimistic Sentiments Index (EPSI) appreciate and depreciate the US Dollar exchange rate in the short-run, respectively. Our sentiment measures are robust to survey-based Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index (MSCI), Consumer Confidence Index (CCI), and various macroeconomic factors. The MSCI and CCI sentiments show a long-term impact on the foreign exchange market. This study implies that economic sentiments play a vital role in the foreign exchange market and it is essential to consider behavioral aspects when modeling the exchange rate movements.

Portfolio Return

We consider the excess return from 20 internationally tradable emerging market (EM) currencies against the US dollar. It has two contributions. First, we document stylized facts about EM currencies. EM currencies have provided significant equity-like excess returns against major currencies, but with low volatility. Picking EM currencies with a relatively high forward premium raises the portfolio return substantially. Second, our calculation incorporates institutional features of the foreign exchange market, such as lags in settling spot contracts, FX swaps, and bid/offer spreads. Transaction costs arising from bid/offer spreads are less than one-fifth of what is typically presumed in the literature. (JEL C58, F31, G15)

Выявлены факторы влияния валютной политики на валютный рынок и реальный сектор экономики Российской Федерации. Составлена модель для анализа факторов, влияющих на уровень заниженности или завышенности валютного курса Российской Федерации по отношению к паритетному валютному курсу. Показано, что уровень заниженности валютного курса отрицательно коррелирует с сальдо платежного баланса и ростом ВВП, при этом положительно коррелирует с уровнем инфляции, уровнем природной ренты в экономике и уровнем коррупции в стране. Предложены организационные мероприятия для повышения эффективности валютного контроля в России. The factors of influence of monetary policy on the foreign exchange market and the real sector of the economy of the Russian Federation are revealed. A model has been compiled to analyze the factors that influence the level of undervaluation or overvaluation of the Russian Federation exchange rate in relation to the parity exchange rate. It is shown that the level of undervaluation of the exchange rate negatively correlates with the balance of payments and GDP growth, while positively correlating with the level of inflation, the level of natural resource rent in the economy and the level of corruption in the country. Organizational measures are proposed to improve the efficiency of currency control in Russia.

Forward premium anomaly is one of the most popular puzzles in the theory of international finance. The phenomenon is explained by, among others, the existence of non-zero risk premium in the foreign exchange market. The paper applies ARCH-in-mean models to assess whether there exists a time-varying risk premium in the USD/PLN and AUD/JPY foreign exchange markets. The results indicate the existence of a non-zero risk premium in the analyzed markets. As far as the USD/PLN is concerned, the risk premium takes negative values when the risk measured by conditional variance rises. The results suggest that when there is a surge in risk, the US dollar’s appreciation and Polish zloty depreciation increases. The results confirm the US dollar as a safe-haven currency that tends to appreciate during high-volatility and crisis periods. Moreover, the study shows that the risk premium in the AUD/JPY market takes positive values when the risk measured by conditional variance rises. It implies that when there is a mount in risk, the appreciation of Japanese yen increases. Furthermore, research results reveal the positive and significant relationship between stock market uncertainty and exchange rates conditional volatility.

This study examines the adaptive behavior of South Africa’s rand (ZAR) exchange rate against its major trading partners, the US Dollar (USD) and the Chinese Yuan (CNY) over the period 1999-2020. The study uses a rolling parametric linear variance ratio (VR) test, nonparametric linear runs test, and non-linear Brock, Dechert and Scheinkman (BDS) test to determine time-varying predictability and regression analyses to assess the effect of market conditions. The results show that the foreign exchange market was found to be inefficient based on the VR tests, but efficient with very few windows of inefficiency based on the runs test and BDS test. In addition, apart from the GDP, none of the market conditions studied is associated with non-parametric linear and nonlinear predictabilities. The study draws two main conclusions. Firstly, the South African foreign exchange market is adaptively efficient. Secondly, foreign exchange market efficiency is primarily driven by the level of economic growth. Practically, it will be difficult for investors to exploit the few windows of predictability in the South African foreign exchange market by focusing mainly on the market conditions studied.

The Impact

The foreign exchange market gives a great impetus to economic development and is one of the most critical parts of the financial market. The global daily turnover in the foreign exchange markets (FOREX) has exceeded USD 6.7 billion. At the same time, speculation in the markets gives a qualitative impetus to its development. Of course, it can partially destabilize the situation with quotations due to their ignorance, but in most cases, it is also helpful for the general state of the market. These concepts were studied by the founder of modern economics - J. Keynes, and foreign scientists M. Poyarliev and J. Levych, and Ukrainian scientists also did not bypass this issue. They considered more the peculiarities of the development of the foreign exchange market of Ukraine and the basics of its regulation. Furthermore, only a few considered the process of hedging currency risks and, in part, speculation. The primary purpose of this article is to study the role of speculation in the foreign exchange market of Ukraine and assess their impact on the foreign exchange market development in recent years. We have achieved this goal, namely to consider the main trends of the foreign exchange market in the last three years. On the positive side, Ukraine has already moved away from maintaining the exchange rate, and the NBU is trying to accumulate certain reserves. It is not easy to trace the positive dynamics in the foreign exchange market development due to the impact of pandemic-related lockdowns. There is a noticeable tendency in the market to devalue the Ukrainian hryvnia. We will also consider the types of traders and their main strategies. Pay special attention to care trade and momentum as the most profitable in the foreign exchange market. The core trade is based on the investor's desire to benefit from the difference in interest rates on different currencies, taking into account the risks. The moment is already based on technical analysis from the trader to decide to invest. This study will be helpful for both students and researchers studying financial markets, especially the foreign exchange market. Perhaps ordinary citizens of Ukraine will take it into account and expand their knowledge in the field of investment and trading in currency pairs because a similar article that would it did not concern the Ukrainian market, which is the value of this work.
