Emerging markets amplify every dollar and rate cycle. Central banks in Brazil, Mexico, and Turkey have typically led the Fed by months, cutting or hiking before the U.S. does. FX volatility vs the dollar is the dominant driver of EM equity and debt returns, so tracking local rates, inflation, and currency together is essential for separating idiosyncratic stress from generic dollar strength.
