Exchange Rates?

Disclaimer
---------------------------------------------
The most ideal exchange rate is one with low volatility. If it suddenly rises or falls sharply... it signifies problems within that country's economy.
The worst-case scenario is when a country has a trade deficit and the exchange rate rises...
Despite news of our country having a trade surplus, the US dollar has become a precious commodity in the foreign exchange market. This happens when money earned from abroad is not released... or when foreign capital entering Korea is converted into US dollars and taken out...
If foreigners continue their selling trend in the stock market, the exchange rate will rise... if the selling trend stops, the exchange rate has room to stabilize or conversely, decrease.
Another factor is when exporting companies sell their held US dollars to pay corporate taxes... this will cause the exchange rate to fall again.

[ Inflation ]
When companies raise prices, their justification is the high exchange rate... and the rising cost of importing raw materials...
Even if the exchange rate drops, they cannot lower prices immediately to recover the losses they incurred.
When raising prices, they do so quickly; when lowering them, they do so slowly or do not lower them at all.
Even if the exchange rate goes down... the pain regarding inflation remains the same.
