| bablig | why not a? can anybody explain |
| rlabog | the real FX rate (q) = average q + nominal yield spread - inflation spread - risk premium spread if the spread is narrow, the value is small. If you want to exert upward pressure on q, you should have a large average q, large nominal yield spread, small inflation spread, small risk premium spread |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
