What happens when a currency is repatriated? How has currency repatriation recently increased the value of the dollar relative to other currencies? Where has the money come from in the first place, when investors (hedge funds etc) repatriate the dollar? Can someone provide an example of this please?

Thanks for your help, it will be extremely appreciated as I’m having trouble understanding the whole picture?

Based on what I’ve learned in Macroeconomics, it seems like it would make sense if someone bought the currency of a high exporting country. There is less of this country’s currency floating around the world market and thus it will not depreciate in value as much as say the dollar because we run a trade deficit. Am a right for thinking this? Also, would a currency with a low inflation rate also be a good option for earning a profit? Besides these two things, what are other factors that are considered by currency speculators?

I was recently in a country where the said currency was ‘weak’ and they had currency notes as high as 5,000.
How is a currency defined as weak and or strong and what leads to governments having to produce denominations of notes so high?

I am trying to buy and hold some foreign currency. I currently only have a checking account and an online savings account, both in US and for US dollar only.

What is the best way (i.e., safe, inexpensive and easy) for me to buy and hold a particular foreign currency (e.g., Japanese Yen)?

I am not looking to trade foreign currency very often. Just buy and hold. Any expert or experienced folk out there?

Is the internet the only way to invest in foreign currencies?

Okay, I know that the Chinese currency is the RMB & the Yuan. But when travelling to China is US currency or the English Pound easily accepted.

Between the US dollar, the pound & the euro, which is the more accepted in China?

(And in case different parts of China have different preferences, I am focussing mainly on Beijing & Wuhan.)
I do not live in the US, but in my country as well as most countries, major foreign currencies are accepted in order to boost tourism.

I want to start collecting foreign currency, but I can’t afford to visit other countries. I don’t know whether this is a stupid question but how do I get foreign currency. Do I just go to the bank? Excuse me if this question is stupid but I am only 16 an I don’t know much about it.

Paying Off Debt

Say the central bank (fed) decides to add more currencies to the economy. How is it injected into circulation? I thought about Fed go buying bonds from the market with the new currency. But then how does Fed control the interest rate effect of the purchase? For example, Fed wants to add 100bn new currencies into the market, then first they have to find 100bn Treasury bills or bonds in the market. Under different liquidity conditions, the 100bn may lower the interest rate by different amount. How does Fed control that?

I understand that you buy currency in “lots” and depending if they go up or down in value you make in profit or loss.

I just don’t understand why the currencies are paired like “EUR/GBP”.

Can someone help me understand the actual process taking place when people trade currency?
