Understanding Fundamental Analysis
Fundamental analysis in Forex involves examining a country's economic factors to predict future currency values. This approach encompasses economic conditions, monetary policies, and more.
The focus is on economic, social, and political factors driving supply and demand. Key indicators include interest rates, inflation, and unemployment. Political decisions also play a crucial role.
Key Fundamental Analysis Indicators
1. Producer Price Index (PPI): Measures the average change in selling prices received by domestic producers over time, reflecting price change from the seller's perspective.
2. Consumer Price Index (CPI): Tracks price changes in consumer goods and services like gasoline, food, and automobiles, often referred to as "headline inflation."
3. Gross Domestic Product (GDP): Represents the monetary value of all finished goods and services produced within a country, typically calculated annually. It includes private and public consumption, government spending, investments, and net exports within a territory.
