In this uncertain world, institutional independence is a key source of stability and trust.On September 16th, Deutsche Banks analysis of ETFs revealed that overseas investors are significantly reducing their dollar exposure at an "unprecedented rate" by using currency hedging when purchasing U.S. stocks and bonds. Citing data from over 500 funds, George Saravelos, the banks global head of FX research, noted that for the first time this decade, inflows into dollar-hedged ETFs buying U.S. assets have exceeded inflows into non-hedged funds. Saravelos believes this hedging behavior explains why the dollar has remained weak even as international investors poured money back into U.S. assets after Trumps tariffs disrupted markets earlier this year. At the time, there was speculation that trade war risks could dampen investor interest in U.S. stocks, bonds, and the dollar itself. Saravelos wrote: "The FX implication is clear: foreign investors may have returned to U.S. assets (albeit at a slower pace), but they are not willing to take on the dollar exposure that comes with it. For every dollar-hedged asset purchased, an equal amount of currency is sold to eliminate the FX risk."On September 16, the British government announced that Royal Air Force fighter jets will carry out air defense missions over Poland.
