will happen to the value of the US $?
Consider France to be the domestic country. Because it is harder to get
French goods, people will buy more foreign goods and the value of the euro
in the future will fall. The expected depreciation of the euro lowers the
expected return on euro assets at any exchange rate, so the demand curve
shifts to the left and the value of the euro will fall.
