The buying and selling discussions as far as Nigeria's Forex is concerned doesn't follow any known financial, economic and trade rules.


Have you wondered, what exactly was Nigeria exporting when the exchange rate was low? Let's even take the most recent...#350 to a USD...

Has our export increased now compared to then or our export has reduced

If the argument of increasing exports to attracts more USD is valid.....what exactly are we exporting years ago that we have stopped exporting that brought about the fall of Naira

..and from the Ops question, are we saying there were loads of export in less than 24 hours which has resulted into more USD inflows into the and then Naira gained as a result of this

My point is, Nigeria's Forex market is unstable for now and there is no known economic reasons that can explain why

Na APC miscreants you dey ask all this questions?

In Head go fit carry? grin

When you are matching your exporting rate with importing rate, your local currency should gain strength.

It's all about which one is demanded most at the moment

Other factors are also involved
Oya tell the entire forum what Nigeria has exported massively apart from oil in the last 1 month?

Una APC handle go use on hand ask question and use another hand reply.

When you people are tired, you will remove your hand from that market manipulation. Until then, you will keep buy goods in the market without it coming down price-wise

It is a mistake to have held on to your dollar this long. You should have offloaded it a long time ago as you noticed the appreciation of Naira over time.

Now, you are merely playing a game of chance and hopeful speculation.

The rate went higher this morning on exchange platforms for us wey dey away.

How does this apply to Nigeria, or are you gloating on Nigeria's mono non manufactured export?.

Re: What Made The Dollar Fall Over Night? by ManOfSon: 1:25pm On Apr 22
So, you woke up today to confess that you're one of those speculating on the value of the dollar, hoarding it for no reason other than ptofiteering, and causing/perpetuating the crash of the naira? But you will also be blaming politicians and the government for every ill in the country.

@The Bolded, Going by your assertions holding back $ Speculative Purposes doesn't help in anyway. For Instance Assuming the time $ was bought around N1,600 same $ can still be bought @ N1,200. And the T.M Shirt still Remains 3 for $135. Now if you are to quantify in Naira value. How much is the cost of each Shirt using the two rate as a determinant?

Summary; Don't buy $ for speculative purposes it hurt @the end. To main the Value of your Funds Buy and sell according to Market reaction.

U are still converting......that's means u don't get it.....

To enjoy ur dollar...nothing concern u with naira....spend in dollar....ur 5k dollars is still ur 5k dollars

That means u don't understand ur colleague

Ur own aim is to convert back to naira to have a feel of plenty naira...... but the conversion technically makes only little difference because the naira u want to convert to has a very low purchasing power now.. e.g 2.7M tokunbo now goes for 8.5-9M..

But if u can understand ur colleague....T.M shirt is still 3 for 135$ since last year....if u dont gerrit, fogerrit....

Yes stupid people are panicking over naira strength, we wey dey crypto and forex knows the ups and downs. As people dey sell, oboy go and buy more. As it stands, naira no get shishi value. You cannot sustain economy artificially for too long. Until I see productivity in Nigeria, I will continue to store dollars and crypto

Please consider this a layman's question.
Last night before I went to bed, at about 11PM I checked dollar to naira rate and it was #1,151/$. Waking up this morning (in less than 7 hours) I checked again and it has plummeted to #1,075/$.

What exactly happened over the night while I was sleeping? I've got like $5K cash and it's reason I've been monitoring the rate even tho I'm absolutely a layman who has no idea what's happening. I only had the money last year and a colleague advised me to convert to dollar and keep which she claimed to be the safest way to retain my money's worth but as it stands, I'm at loss already. What happened please? Or is google not reliable?
you'll only be loosing if you got the dollar last year december

Dollar is crashing now, now they are unhappy
I don't know how you guys always feel by making tribal comments like this.

Tomorrow if you travel to western country and get discriminated you will run facebook to make a video about it but forgot you are worst than them.

I have never seen a country all the citizens are happy about the government of the day. Even in France you have been reading news on how the president was being stoned with eggs and others. change this mentality please.
Re: What Made The Dollar Fall Over Night? by stephenwa(m): 1:38pm On Apr 22
