Recently, we’ve seen depreciation in the value of the dollar. Whether due to US debt levels, inflation or interest rate hikes, a number of factors are at play. If you live abroad and rely on dollar income from the US, you may want to plan ahead. If you live in the US and have a diversified portfolio, including international positions, you will probably see minimal impact from this change, especially if your international funds are not hedged back to the dollar (most of our portfolios are set up in this way). In this manner, you gain currency diversification as well.
