M.S. V asked:


On wikipedia it says: A nation with a trade deficit will experience reduction in its foreign exchange reserves which ultimately lowers (depreciates) the value of its currency. Why does a reduction in the foreign exchange reserves lower the value of currency?

I’ve been hearing bits and fragments about this topic, that started when Iran replaced the dollar with the Euro as it’s foreign trade currency. Some people point out that if that were ever to happen on a wider scale, the U.S economy would collapse due in part to the 7 trillion debt (33% of which is to foreign nations/enterprises) that would have to be paid by a currency the U.S would have to buy instead of just paying in U.S dollars.

I’m not an economist, but I hope that someone with a background on banking/economics would clear it up, away from propaganda, ideology ..etc.
