Answer:

the internet

Explanation:

The computer rendered the typewriter obsolete and made writing in long-hand a thing of the past, but it took the internet to truly turn the computer into the monster it is today. While the airplane shrank our planet to the point that one could fly from New York to London in six hours, the internet made it possible to be there in a few seconds. It allows truth to make it into and out of repressive countries, it foments revolutions, and spreads lies at the speed of light. It also gives anyone the ability to buy and sell almost anything imaginable, find and torment old school mates, watch the latest you-tube videos, and even find their perfect life partner, all for a few bucks a month. Oh, and you can also get useful information off it if you don’t mind scrolling through 15,000 hits to find out just how long snails really live. Where would we be without it?

olasank [31]

Answer:

According to the International fisher effect , for any two countries, the spot exchange rate should change in an equal amount but in the opposite direction to the difference in nominal interest rates between the two countries.

Explanation:

If any country has higher nominal interest then there is a higher chance of inflation which might result in depreciation in there currency.

For example XYZ country has 8% nominal interest and another ABC country have 10%. If we look closely, country ABC will be more appreciable but the country with higher interest will have higher inflation rate.

So, inflation depreciates the currency of country as compared with the country with low nominal interest.
