Dollar performance against advanced and emerging currencies told different stories in August 2020. Jonathan Fortun and Robin Brooks contrast relative stability against the G10 with appreciation against emerging markets exposed to weaker commodity prices. The absence of a Chinese stimulus comparable to 2009 underpinned their view that a sustained dollar decline was unlikely in the near term.

The collapse of international tourism threatened a major source of activity in emerging markets during the pandemic. Writing in July 2020, Jonathan Fortun and coauthors estimated that tourism could fall by 60 percent that year even under optimistic assumptions. They anticipated an uneven recovery, with Asia and Europe better positioned, while emphasizing that uncertainty over the pandemic made the outlook unusually fragile.

Pandemic import compression changed emerging market current accounts and the exchange rates consistent with external balance. The July 2020 valuation update identified the Brazilian real as the most undervalued emerging market currency and the South African rand as close to fair value.

Jonathan Fortun’s July 2020 tracker estimated emerging market portfolio inflows of $32.9 billion in June, as flows continued to recover. Debt attracted $23.5 billion, compared with $9.5 billion for equities, while equity flows outside China posted only marginal gains. The composition shows that the aggregate recovery was stronger in debt than in equities and remained uneven across markets.
