Consider taking entries, exits, stop losses and take profits from key levels
Cheaper imported raw materials lowers manufacturing costs.
- While General Motors manufacture their cars domestically, many of the electrical components and raw materials are sourced from foreign markets and imported to the States.
- A stronger U.S. dollar means these raw materials should be able to be sourced at a competitive price, improving margins at a time where the company may see a decline in vehicle exports owing to the exchange rate increasing costs for foreign markets.
