Foreign exchange risk is a risk of increasing or decreasing the yen equivalent of the asset by moving the exchange rate of yen and foreign currency.

If you have a U.S. stock or global stock investment trust, you will also be affected by the exchange rate as well as the stock price.

It is easy to push up the yen equivalent of foreign currency, and the circle height is easy to push down. If you don’t know this, you can easily misunderstand the reason for value movement.

Forex Risks

Foreign exchange risk is that the value of the exchange rate changes when the foreign currency is seen in a circle.

For example, even if the U.S. stock is lying in dollars, the yen rate may be increased if the yen rate proceeds. On the other hand, if the U.S. stock rises a little, it may not be elongated with the yen conversion when the circle height goes.

For people with foreign currency assets, yen is easy to catch up. Because it is easy to increase the amount of money when you return the assets to the yen.

Sorry, this entry is only available in Japanese. If you return to the circle height, the yen equivalent will be reduced.

Even investment trusts have the impact of currency exchange

There are people who think that it is not related to exchange because it is an investment trust that is bought in yen, but this is a misunderstanding.

If the contents of the investment trust are overseas stocks and overseas bonds, it is expected that it is close to the fact that the assets are built in foreign currency.

I would like to confirm that there is a “exchange hedge” or “exchange hedge” in the product description.

It is not a simple story of safety if there is a hedge and no hedge. In long-term investment, it is important to understand which mechanisms are.

Beginners tend to fail

A common failure in foreign currency is to mix stock price and exchange.

When the evaluation amount is increasing, did it increase the stock price? Is it a stock cheaper or a yen high when it is on the other hand? Just by looking at it, the judgment calms down.

Another thing is to buy foreign currency assets by looking at the news of Yen’an. If the yen is already advanced, you may lose money back.

If you invest in overseas assets, you will be affected not only in stock price and bond price, but also in exchange currency.

It is easy to push up the yen equivalent of foreign currency, and the circle height is easy to push down. If you have a foreign currency asset, let’s put the reason for the value movement into “investment” and “exchange”.
