Volatility in the currency market has important implications for investors. Take Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), the world’s third most valuable company by market cap.

This tech behemoth recently warned analysts and investors that future revenue would drop even more than expected thanks to a rising U.S. dollar. How can this be? Microsoft is a multinational corporation that takes in roughly half of its revenues in foreign currencies. If the value of the money it earns abroad falls compared to the dollar, that means Microsoft will earn less in U.S. dollars for those sales.

Companies that depend on exports from the U.S. for their sales or earn a lot of revenue overseas could struggle in a strong-dollar environment. This could put even more pressure on their shares, which are already dealing with higher interest rates and domestic consumers suffering from high inflation.

Microsoft is down roughly 35% so far this year, compared to a 22% decline for the market as a whole. Emerging markets are also struggling, with diversified emerging markets funds down 27% so far this year.

That’s because many of the countries issue dollar-denominated debt and then service those IOUs with their respective currencies. That’s a tough bargain when the dollar is strengthening and interest rates are rising, potentially leading to losses and defaults
