“…Determinants of long‐term exchange rate fluctuation also include the relative labor productivity of different countries (Berka et al, 2018; Canzoneri et al, 1999), and the structural factors underlying each country's GDP, trade balance, and net foreign asset positions (Bergstrand, 1991; Clague, 1986; Faruqee, 1995; Kharrat et al, 2020). In the short‐run, numerous macro‐economic factors will affect the fluctuation of the exchange rate of one country's currency against those of other countries, including money supply (Cheung et al, 2019; Funashima, 2020), inflation (Ito & Sato, 2008), interest rate gap between domestic and foreign countries (Hansen & Hodrick, 1980; Schmitt‐Grohé & Uribe, 2022), international capital flows and capital controls (Calvo et al, 1993; Dooley & Isard, 1980), expectations (Mussa, 1982), political factors (Frieden, 1994; Korus & Celebi, 2019), foreign exchange interventions (Daude et al, 2016; Vargas‐Herrera & Villamizar‐Villegas, 2020), stock prices (Nusair & Olson, 2022), and news (Aquilante et al, 2022; Frenkel, 1982; Narayan et al, 2021). These factors will help estimate a benchmarking of the exchange rate of an economy.…”
