Market Turbulence

Significance While futures markets are assigning a 28% probability to a rate hike this month, emerging markets (EMs) are likely to remain under strain regardless of whether the Fed tightens policy or decides to wait longer. While a rate hike in September is likely to strengthen the dollar, putting further pressure on EM currencies, a delay risks being perceived by investors as an indication of the severity of the China-induced market turbulence. Impacts The rise in US interest rates has been well anticipated and will prove less disorderly than the 2013 'taper tantrum'. The strong dollar will put strain on fixed exchange rate regimes, such as dollar pegs in Africa and the Middle East. The benefits to EM exports from the declines in local currencies will be offset by the slump in China's demand.

The Exchange Rate

The aim of this study is to analyze how oil price shocks affect the economic growth of floating exchange rate regimes and fixed exchange rate regimes in oil-exporting countries with a ratio of oil exports to total exports exceeding 70%. Also, this study seeks to determine what monetary and fiscal policies both regimes apply in order to curb business cycles and reduce inflationary and recessionary gaps. The analytical study uses panel data for the period from 1991 to 2019, covering 24 oil-exporting countries, from the World Economic Outlook (WEO) database and World Bank. The econometric model is estimated by applying a panel VECM to examine the short- and long-term interdependencies in the macroeconomic variables. The results demonstrate that when there is a negative shock to the oil price, the exchange rate of the floating exchange rate regimes depreciates, money supply increases, and government spending decreases. In contrast, the exchange rate of the fixed exchange rate regimes fluctuates slightly; the money supply slightly decreases in the near, medium, and long term; and government spending decreases.
