Currency speculation is considered a highly suspect activity in many countries. While investment in traditional financial instruments like bonds or stocks often is considered to contribute positively to economic growth by providing capital, currency speculation does not, according to this view; it is simply gambling, that often interferes with economic policy.
Controversy about currency speculators and their effect on currency devaluations and national economies recurs regularly. Nevertheless, many economists have argued that speculators perform the important function of providing a market for hedgers and transferring risk from those people who don't wish to bear it, to those who do. Other economists however, may consider this argument to be based more on politics and a free market philosophy than on economics.
The overall mood of the forex market is that of uncertainty - so it’s unsurprising that many people are speculating about what’s going to happen next.
