US Secretary of State welcomes the end of a "caliphate"
24th March, 2019
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Saturday welcomed the elimination of a "caliphate", calling for a "concerted effort" to end the threat of terrorism.
"The land that was once controlled by a sympathetic organization in Iraq and Syria has been liberated," Pompeo said in a tweet on Twitter. "We congratulate the US Army, the Syrian Democratic Forces and the Alliance for this amazing success." "There is still a lot of work to be done to ensure a complete and complete elimination of the threat of terrorism of Islamic extremism," he said.
On Saturday, Syrian forces announced the total elimination of the "caliphate". The jihadist organization announced in 2014 the establishment of a state "Islamic Caliphate" on large areas controlled in Syria and Iraq, the size of Britain. LINK

Understanding exchange rates
An appreciation in the exchange rate is beneficial if it is caused by the economy becoming more productive and competitive. However, if there is an appreciation due to speculation, then it could be harmful as exporters will not be able to compete.

Why Do Exchange Rates Change?
While there’s a lot of debate amongst economists (surprise, surprise) about what causes exchange rates to change, there is a consensus that the following six factors are important:
Inflation rates: generally, countries with lower inflation rates have higher-valued currencies
Interest rates: higher interest rates often mean that investors get a better return in one country than another, and so sometimes push the value of a country’s currency up compared to low interest countries
Current account deficits: a current account deficit means that a country is spending more on foreign trade (via imports) than it is earning (via exports), and so it will need to borrow from other countries to finance its deficit – and generally this means the value of its currency will decline
Level of public debt: if a country is running very large budget deficits, and borrowing to cover this cost, you will often see high inflation, which in turn will often mean a lower currency valuation.
Terms of trade: the terms of trade means the difference in the price of exports to the price of importants – a positive terms of trade means the prices a country gets for its exports is higher than the price it pays for its imports.
Generally, the stronger the terms of trade, the stronger the currency, which has definitely been affecting the Aussie dollar in recent years
Stability and economic growth: finally, the level of political stability, and whether an economy is growing at all, matter to investors. Stable, growing countries are lower risk, and therefore tend to have stronger currency valuations.
