The Forex Market and Recession

The Forex Market and Recession

Unavoidable economic recessions are causing a turmoil in stock markets and large corporations all over the world. It is truly a devastating period in our world’s financial history. Stock markets are crashing, leading companies are bankrupt, and average people are barely hanging on. However, the foreign exchange market, or forex, is seemingly immune to the difficulties of these recessions. Let’s take a look at how this is possible.


Forex is based on the buying of one currency while selling another, and the value of one currency is only considered down when being compared directly to another one. Forex is a smart way to invest your money during a recession because all currencies are affected. When the worth of one currency has fallen there is always another currency that has gone up. It is all relative and there is always a profit to be made.

It is becoming increasingly popular for large corporations and individuals to invest in forex rather than the stock markets. There are seven commonly exchanged currencies that are the most sought after and the most commonly traded. These currencies are referred to as “The Majors” and include the US dollar, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Japanese Yen, Swiss Franc, British pound, and the Euro. When being compared to the thousands of investment possibilities in the stock market, a $3.2 trillion turnover makes up for lack of investing options. This is a smart way to invest, as a fall in the amount of trade will not make a big impact on the potential for profit. Forex is also open 24 hours a day, therefore increasing earning potential and allowing you to view market statistics anytime it is convenient for you.

However, before you start investing it is essential that you educate yourself on the ins and outs of forex. This is a proven way that you can make money, but like all wealth building practices you must do it right and be patient. You must have a thorough understanding of how the system works; otherwise you will undoubtedly lose money. There are companies that will educate you on how to trade in forex, and a simple internet search will give you several places to start. Generally, by following the steps of your training and executing patience, you will be able to make profits.

We are living in hard times, where there are many who struggle to put food on the table and too many don’t even have a table. Jobs are being lost at a mind-blowing speed and people are being forced into taking welfare and unemployment insurance. It is very encouraging for these people to know they can invest very little in the forex market and actually earn some extra money. Forex is essentially unaffected by recession, therefore it is a great way to help invest in the future of your dreams
